Thread: Can This Team Go Farther Than Last Year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AG_sweden</b></div><div>I think the whole league is asking this question. It depends I would say. How much better Laffy and Kakko can play + Chytil. What Kravtsov can bring to the team, 15 goals?
Shesterkin needs to find his inner god mode again. I don't think Kreider is hitting 50 again. probably around 35 - maybe 40.
How much better is Trocheck in blue red and white than Strome, also needs to be seen.
Top 4 is solid. Shesterkin is a top 5 goalie at least. Zibanejad needs to find his goal scoring touch, can he playing like in the playoffs then yes.
Panarin needs to show some pushback after a disappointing post season.
There is a chance but it is not set in stone.</div></div>

Agreed, I'd like to add also that I think we will be better in the face-off circle which should improve our possession metrics a tad, but either Laffy or kakko will need to explode for us to be better, If I had to put money on it I think we finish either at or just below our point total last year

Thread: probably not playoff team
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AG_sweden</b></div><div>CAR, CBJ/or WSH and PIT at least. Kreider will not hit 50 again. I be glad (for him) if he hits 40.
A lot of wins last year they shouldn't have won. Stolen by Shesterkin and lady luck. To bet it will happen again is very hopeful wishful thinking.
I like Trocheck. But I feel like luck will be bad luck this year.
Unless Laffy and Kakko can reach superstar level which is unlikely. They will do each much better but will not be enough.</div></div>

I think u underestimate this team by a lot, shesterkin is a top 2 goalie in the world and with him healthy they are a playoff lock. I've watched Hank put the whole organization on his shoulders for darn near a decade in the past. Shesterkin has that type of skill, and shesty has a much much more talented team around him
