Makes sense, we didn’t improve much, and some of the teams around us did
Hopefully we can get lucky this year and finally draft some high end talent (preferably a center) we would be set if we do

I think we finish closer to 10 than 5.
Last year we started the year with 2 d-men with NHL experience. This year it will likely be all 6 with NHL experience. The same can be said with forwards. Monty was regularly in the top 10 for gaa on a team with inexperienced d-men, this year he should be better supported. Key guys were also injured for a large portion of last year’s season. Assuming those guys can stay healthy, it would be a significant improvement.
One of the only impactful roster changes that I can see here is Newhook for Hoffman. Which in itself seems like an improvement. Time will tell.
They do make a point about the pp though. But it likely won’t get any worse than 31st.

The scoring is the key issue. I just don’t see enough goals in us.

Bottom 5 would be best case scenario, I think habs a not that far from Wings, Blues, and other teams in the bottom teens no man’s land.
