6x 20+ goal scorers is pretty optimistic

I can see it happening with an elite pp, this team was elite 5v5 of part of it was last year.

I'm a half full glass guy, and like @BuFfaLOFaN said, it could happen if the pp works

I like your lines a lot. I think we'll definitely try this lineup at some point.
My biggest curiosities are that I kinda want to see Toffoli on Suzuki's wing, right or left. Also for me, Lehkonen was a huge driver for KK in the return to play, I'd probably start them both together and try and find a fit on their right wing, maybe Anderson, maybe Toffoli.
I agree that Tatar-Danault-Gallagher probably ought to stay together. Such a dominate 5 on 5 line the past two seasons, even against elite competition.

I agree with pretty much all of these ratings, except maybe Byron could go up 1 overall. Drouin’s rating is probably fair, although he could go up 1 or 2 if he continues from how he was playing at the start of last season.

I'm willing to die on that hill too, Price is a great goalie and no one will convince me otherwise

This team will not have that many 20+ goal scorers youre problem last year was all of your guys are play drivers and you have no finishers and what did bergy do in free agency? He added one of the best play drivers in the league who is know for driving play great but not being able to finish

I think the Drouin Suzuki Anderson line is gonna surprise us all. And 6 20 goal scorers only seems plausible if their power play is in the top 7. 5v5, they're probably one of the best teams in the league, so guys like Danault will get lots of points too. lines seem good.

ratings aside. I want to talk about total goals for. Last season the Habs got 208. You are projecting 266. That's an increase of 58 goals. Habs added Toffoli and Anderson, plus Suzuki and KK should see an increase. These GOALS FOR projections are actually achievable. Of course, it will depend on how many games are played and the health of the players, but a realistic post.

Agree with everything
Byron could go +1, is contract isn’t nice but the player is good
I don’t think Kotkaniemi score 20 goals, not yet
Gallagher less points
Good post 👍
