The team will get better

- I foresee Brodies return fixing the D pairings (still not crazy about Russell and Wideman though).
- Hamilton will start to fit in and look like the legit top 3 guy we thpught we had by the end of the year
- Gillies already has 2 shutouts and has some awesome numbers in Stockton (albeit early so he could be up next year. No point making a stupid trade for a Goalie.
- Well get a good look at Ortio this year.
- We will have a good idea of whether we have a top 6 winger (between Porier and Klimchuk) in the making. I would be happy if one of the two makes a HUGE step this year. For some reason I like Klimchuk more.
- Bennett's confidence will pick up with the teams and with it the points. Hes gonna be great.

Worst case we get a decent pick this year and with the new lottery sytem, anbody who misses has a chance at the 1st/2nd... overall. That being said I think we'll pick it up. If its not looking great by the deadline it gives you an excuse to trade some guys that werent going to be resigned... cough Hudler/Russell.

again this is WORSE case not best case
