I think Detroit made some solid moves to raise their ceiling.
That being said, I don't see these additions adding the 35ish points that they'll need to make up to jump into a wildcard spot. TB, TOR and FLA are all significantly better overall than the Wings, and even with a couple of injuries to start the year, the B's are still very, very solid. The Metro also continues to have a very strong top 5 or so teams.
Detroit will be fun(ner) to watch for Wings fans, and probably hang around for a bit, but I don't even know that they're better than the Sens at this point. That D-core is going to make it really, really hard for Husso to come anywhere close to his 2022 numbers, IMO.
Certainly not an attempt to bash the Wings here, because again, I think they made some smart moves (Chiarot notwithstanding), but they're a year away still, IMO.
