Predictions:

Risto stays, puts up his customary 40+ points but his +/1 greatly improves with reduced minutes.

Dahlin hits 50+ points.

Skinner drops back down to around 30 goals, still gets 60~ points.

Sabres are a far more consistent team, Hutton posts a .912 save % and they finish with around 85-90 points, right alongside the Habs.

To me it has to be fake. Jets might trade Laine, but not Connor, and never both of them. The Habs would have to trade half their roster and next few 1st round picks to make that deal even close.

IMO the depth, if casey and cozens pans out, is as good as any team not named the leafs or bolts in the east

if you have johansson, olofsson, sheary and tage as your bottom 6 wingers

it's a lot better then wilson, elie, girgens and sobotka

Even if he posts a .920 they Isles aren't going to be any damn good.

They got pummeled all year long last season and didn't do anything to address the fact that they can't score.

IMHO Cozens needs at least one more year in the minors, probably a year in Rochester after that... But the future is looking a little brighter now. I like where Botts has taken the defense with the recent additions... still some work to do at forward though... and Goalie is still a question mark... If UPL is the real deal this will be a really fun team to watch in 2-3 years

I agree with all of this but I think Skinner is in the 35 to 40 range because he will be riding shotgun with Jack.

Its early yet in camp, but Eli is impressing. A 4th line of Elie, Sobotka and Girgensons would provide maximum truculence
