Well right now our core is absent of a goalie, so hard to answer.
Besides finding a steady goalie who ends the Kipper-less carousel:
1. Bennett needs to take the next step or two.
2. Giordano needs to maintain his current standard of play through his mid 30's
3. Backlund needs to be extended to a non cap crippling contract
Monahan
Backlund
Bennett
Jankowski
Lazar
Gaudreau
Tkachuk
Frolik
Giordano
Hamilton
Brodie
With a good goalie locked in long term, I think that core has a chance to contend.
