Not super in-depth in any one area, but this guy does a great, compact, video on the overall state of the team.

I think our roster is better this season than last. Michkov is an upgrade over Atkinson and a healthy Drysdale should make up for no Walker. Young players should take steps forward. The real test will be our goaltending. Errson played well when he knew Hart was the starter, kinda faltered when he was forced to be THE GUY and play essentially every game. If he’s ready to rock and Fedotov can steal a few wins, I think we’ll be in the playoff mix come March.
X-factors besides goaltending are, obviously, injuries… and if we don’t re-sign or trade TK by the start of the season, we’ll probably have to trade him at the deadline. That would probably kill any momentum we’d have.

We make the playoffs last year if 4 of our top defensemen didn’t get hurt/traded. Our late season slump was caused by risto, drysdale and Seeler all getting hurt at the same time after Walker got traded.

No because other teams got better and teams that were bad last season,such as the devils, won’t be.

I hope not

Honestly rather bottom out and try to draft twice in the top 10 next years draft. Two more high end prospects would go a hell of a long way.

when you think about how there are 2k+ games a season & he’s able to comment on the productivity of individual players on every team, i.e coots dropping off halfway through last season.

I certainly hope they are no where close
