Continuing on the Season-Opening Roster breakdown, Jay and Jake look at the defense corps and goalies! Will guys like Andrew Peeke and Vlad Gavrikov impress more as steady and subtle guys? What are the next steps for Jake Bean and Adam Boqvist? How elite will Zach Werenski’s play be this year? Is Nick Blankenburg a solid enough seventh guy? And most importantly…what can we make of Erik Gudbranson’s first year in Union Blue? In net, can Elvis’ statistics rise to become a capable number one goalie? How does Tarasov fill in with Joonas Korpisalo’s injury, and can Korpi show enough improvement to remain in the National Hockey League during this make-or-break season for him?
