After adding Stastny and extending DeMelo, they are trying to come back to that 2018 level.
Let's start with their x factor: someone, ANYONE, needs to step up in that D-core. Their right side is set with Pionk, DeMelo and Poolman. Morrissey is a very underrated defender but someone needs to help these 4. Samberg, Niku and Heinola are all quality options for that spot.
Their offense is very set, especially if Roslovic comes back.
I do wonder why Brossoit was brought back. I do not believe he is a good NHL goalie at all, I think they could've used a quality backup yet GMKC didn't add anyone. Brossoit will need to provide Hellebuyck some help
Here's how I'd build their lineup if Roslo comes back:
Connor-Scheifele-Wheeler
Laine-Stastny-Ehlers
Copp-Lowry-Roslo
Harkins-Perreault-Appleton
Morrissey-DeMelo
x-factor-Pionk
Forbort/Beaulieu/Niku-Poolman
Hellebuyck
Brossoit
