Nick Bjugstad proved to Florida Panther fans what kind of player he was last season, and this season is the perfect year for him to build on. He was a key part of the Florida Panthers’ success late last season, and he will certainly be a great part of it all this year.
The Minnesota native recorded 19 goals and 49 points in 2017-18, adding a +/- of +5 and all around having a memorable year, one of the best of his career. He was just one goal shy from a crucial milestone in a player’s career, the 20-goal season.
