Quoting: d4rk1ll4
Interesting. Some questions:
1. Where will Ottawa finish in the ranking?
2. What will most likely be the PP?
3. Who is likely to have a breakout year or who will surprise in terms of point production? Who is advantaged by the line combinations?
4. Who is likely to have a bad year in point production?
5. How many games each goalie is likely to play?
1. I think they'll be 2nd or 3rd in the Atlantic, make the playoffs. Just too much talent, only injuries could screw that up
2. 1st Powerplay Unit : Tkachuk-Stützle-Tarasenko-Giroux-Chabot
2nd Powerplay Unit : Batherson-Norris-Kubalik-Sanderson-Chychrun
9 of these players are locks (but units will change), for Kubalik it depends as he could be traded to allow Pinto to be signed, who would then take his place on the PP
3. Ridly Greig. Erik Brannstrom (but at the same time is blocked by Chabot and Sanderson so it would take an injury)
4. Maybe Tarasenko, maybe Kubalik
5. split I'd say but I see Forsberg playing more because he's quite good (probably the most underrated goalie in the NHL)
