After having added Hornqvist, Wennberg, Verhaeghe, Hinostroza, Gudas and Nutivaara and after losing Matheson, Dadonov, Wallmark and most likely Haula and Hoffman the Panthers are looking to finally get some consistency.

Their PK should be better with Gudas, Nutivaara and Wennberg while Duclair and Hornqvist should fit in well on the PP and all that as Denisenko and Tippett likely make their NHL debut but really I don't see them making the 2021 SCP. Their main weakness (assuming Bob is any better than last season) is the lack of a proper 2C, cause Wennberg ain't it.

The x-factor for them as simple as 3 letters: BOB. BOB. Bobrovsky desperately needs to be (much) better than last year. If he isn't, forget it, this team is done.

Here's how I'd build the lines:
Huberdeau-Barkov-Connolly
Duclair-Wennberg-Hornqvist
Denisenko-Acciari-Tippett
Vatrano-Verhaeghe-Hinostroza

Weegar-Ekblad
Yandle-Stralman
Nutivaara-Gudas

Bobrovsky
Driedger
