Been thinking about the offseason thus far..really, a couple of things break right for us next season and suddenly we're a team that nobody wants to play.

• the skills guys all have size now so it's not like the resident goons can go and injure them.
• now that we have a tough guy, everybody know there'll be a price to be paid for that kind of thing (thank you Steen). Tom Wilson should think twice before he goes after somebody like Snuggerud.
• legitimate centers on the team now, not just trying to shoehorn Buch into it. Maybe buch has a bounceback year
• Mailloux may be overexposed on the first pairing over the course of a whole season, and a bonafide #1 D man to pair with Broberg would be welcome but maybe Jiricek shows up ready to go next season.
• Hofer is legit #1 from day 1 and the competitive Jordan Binnington realizes that his next contract with his next team is on the line and shows up like the old Binnington.

If any coach in the league is going to get a bounceback year from Mctavish...or coax 20 goals out of McMichael, it's Monty. And I like that they've got a task master now play bad cop on the coaching staff.

Anyway things are looking all right from where I sit, looking forward to next season
