I think some players will regress, but with the influx of talent in the system I think the team will continue on a similar path. Anyone who takes a step backward will likely provide an opportunity for a Gaudreau, Arnold, Agostini, Hanowski or Poirier to step in and play. The only thing that could make it a painful year would be in we suffered a major injury to a blueliner or one had a bad year. I think we're in pretty good shape for a similar year next season. Not a great team, but not an Oiler bad team either.
