I look at some of the standouts in the Jets camp and like thier chances this year. They will be a beast in a season or two. Also can't ignore the Oilers replacing Hall with Lucic, replacing Ference with Larsson, and adding puljarj and Versteeg
We are the most improved team because of goaltending alone and that has been discussed by many analysts throughout the Summer. Anything else is gravy on top.

Also having one of the youngest cores in the NHL a year older is huge.

Last year we had 1 true scoring line. This year we have 2. It's hard to debate that. We're adding 2-3 new faces to the top-6.
