Derek Stepan has led the Rangers since the Olympic break with 12 points in 11 games. This campaign has still been a far cry from his 2013 season when he recorded 44 points in 48 games. It's worth noting that he did most of miss the preseason because the then restricted free agent was holding out and that might be at least partially to blame for his decline. Regardless, we see him as a good candidate to bounce back in 2014-15.
