I really feel better about our blue line this year. We're not going to get as many goals from our 4th line, but I hope we are harder to play against. I want opposing teams to have to worry about our top end speed and our back end physicality.
In terms of power rankings….that's all fun for clicks and content, but you could honestly swap around anyone in that top 5 and nobody could say you were crazy. The truly wild thing is Florida drops all the way out of the top 10. We know it's because of injuries…but still it is a shock.
Good on Erne!!
