THE BOOK: Strong skater, once a dangerous sniper but now more of a complete player.

EXPECTATIONS: Must produce. Lots of talk last season about how good he was in the room but Jokinen was brought to Winnipeg to provide scoring.

WHAT TO WATCH FOR: Jokinen never got his legs going last season after the lockout. Can he regain the speed that makes him dangerous and use it to create offence?
