Concern? Power play. The season starts on a 2 for 20 power play and here we go again.
Biggest concern…..special teams. PP & PK. They're a solid 5v5 team.
Biggest concern is making the playoffs. We’re not beating FL so what’s the point of making the postseason? Better to tank for 1 more year and build a future juggernaut. Unload all the vets at the deadline.
TANK, another high draft pick would add rocket fuel to this team.
My concern is Varly's health. That's it. This is a playoff team with him healthy.
OFFENSE
The biggest concern is still going to be the lack of scoring, whether it be even strength or on the pp. Maybe we get lucky with Shabanov, or Drouin and Duclair and they have monster seasons, but realistically there isn't much to get excited about offensively.
My biggest concern is bigger than your. lol
ROY…that's my biggest concern. Now that he had input into the coaching staff and he isn't hamstrung by Lou's old friends and family employment program, we'll see if he has a winning system to win. IMO, this roster mostly healthy should be good for 90+ points. How good a judge of talent is he? How well can he position players to be successful? I think he did well with Holmstrom, but Duclair was a disaster. I don't know for sure, but I have to believe Roy had a lot to do with that 4 year contract that has been a nightmare so far.
My secondary concern is Varly. I doubt he will stay healthy and we'll be grinding Sorokin into the ice once again.
concern is our first line. they need to stay healthy and actually good
Your biggest concern is the trade deadline sell off, shocking! The drecks of the fanbase
