Description

From what it looks like Cozens more than likely makes the team, and since they signed Tage Thompson to the contract they did, I'm guessing they're wanting him on that 3rd line with Cozens, and I added Duke because Cozens is such a good facilitator that having a solid (yet inconsistent) sniper can be good for the kid.
The defence to me is still extremely suspect along with the goaltending, so I'm assuming the hope for this team is that they're a top 5 offence (which honestly they should be).

1. Didn't know that Pilut was playing in the KHL ill adjust for that then and put Irwin in his spot
2. I only put Rieder there over Okposo for the PK strength that Rieder has.
3. Duclair is a talented forward his biggest issue over his career has been sustained success.

Montour switched to LHD.
They probably won’t sign Duclair because they already said Cozens is starting off at RW, and Thompson has a lot of experience at LW. If I had to guess.

Hall-Eichel-Olofsson
Skinner-Staal-Cozens
Thompson-Eakin-Reinhart
Girgensons-Lazar-Okposo.

Montour-Ristolainen
Dahlin-Miller
McCabe-Jokiharju.
Ullmark
Hutton.

Buffalo's defense is fine, definitely not extremely suspect in my opinion.
