What is this composition? Are we definitely going to fight for the playoffs or again for the top 10 and Jack trade?

Defense improve, goaltending vastly improved, penalty kill improved, Krueger is a defense first coach, 3rd line has a lot of skill, if Cozens graduates to the 2nd line - Johansson becomes the 3rd line center. All this improvement, where do you see a problem

Is Sanderson ready for the NHL? I read that it won't be ready yet. Basically my complaint about the attack, we still haven't found 2C. Why do we need Helm on the third line? I don't see that this squad will fight for the playoffs. But I love to grumble so never mind.

I think I agree with Salami here. I think defense gets worse. Borgen is not an upgrade over montour or miller. And dahlstrom is mediocre at best. I would think we could find better options for the left side. Goaltending does get better. But healthy ullmark playing 60 games is an upgrade over last season anyways.
Our middle six is largely the same and I dont see the improvement we need to compete. That 2nd line definitely needs more for sure talent. I like kahun alot but I dont think I trust him to be a productive 2c

Ive heard hes ready, scouts are very high on Sanderson. Kahun Olofsson and Johansson did pretty well together at the end of the year they can roll till at least February to let Cozens adapt. Helm is a great pk forward and has led the league in zone entries for years. Put him with some talent youll find theirs some production left in him
