Goaltending and Defense are in better shape than last year. Then it is just replacing Cammy and Stempniak for the forward group. Going into last season I would say the 2013 roster would be better on forward, but based on how Cammy and Stempniak actually played and their lack of offense generation most of the year (until after the trade deadline for Cammy) I would say we are at least even with that on forward. If we can get one of the rookies to earn a spot, I think the opening day roster will be an improvement overall.
