bIueadams 776 Report post Posted September 7, 2022 Let's say we stay relatively healthy this year and most of our players have UP years, as we are sort of expecting with this new roster. What do our goal totals look like? Larkin - 30 goals Bertuzzi - 30 goals Raymond - 30 goals Vrana - 30 goals Perron - 30 goals Copp - 20 goals Kubalik - 20 goals Fabbri - 20 goals Rasmussen - 15 goals Suter - 15 goals Zadina - 10 goals Erne - 10 goals Veleno - 10 goals Sundqvist - 10 goals Seider - 10 goals Chiarot - 5 goals Hronek - 5 goals Oesterle - 5 goals Smith - 5 goals Lindstrom - 0 goals Maata - 0 goals Total: 310 goals I don't think those figures are very ambitious at all for those players. But 310 goals for would put us in 3rd place in the entire league for goals for last year... behind only Florida and Toronto. Now injuries will happen, and some players will disappoint. Like maybe Seider only scores x5. And Kubalik only x15. And Perron is hurt half the year. But I also think we have some player who could seriously surpass this figures too. Like Vrana goes out and pots x35. Bertuzzi x40. Zadina turns it on and gets x15 or x20. Veleno and Ras too. I don't think we're a 4 line cup team yet, but this is definitely a deep 3 line team with a ? defense and upgraded goaltending. If Maata and Chiarot prove to be good upgrades (and maybe Eddog makes the team) we could be seriously dangerous when healthy. I have a feeling that even if Chia and Maata are lackluster, Seider is going to go POWER LEVEL OVER 9000 YOU HAVENT EVEN SEEN MY FINAL FORM mode and will carry the defense on his massive shoulders. Lalonde has no excuses. I expect competitive hockey every ******* night DEREK. 2 AtlantaHotWings and ely s reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lalonde has no excuses. I expect competitive hockey every ******* night DEREK. While I could probably quibble with a few of these totals, I think you're generally in the ballpark on most of it. I don't think scoring is going to be our issue. I think our defense is still league average (at best) and our special teams still need a TON of work. That's the difference between us being a playoff contender and us being middle of the pack. I can easily see a reality in which we're better than Boston and competitive with Toronto, but I can also see a world where we can't score on the powerplay and lose a lot of close games that matter.
