Will Lucic improve? Doubtful. Will Maroon? Nah. Will Talbot? I can't see him playing more, and I can't see him playing better. The same at best.
Eberle and RNH have peaked, IMO. Larsson is what he is, same with the rest of the D. The rest are role players. Some will improve, some will not, some will go backwards.

I imagine the league has paid their debt to Katz for opening that building and there won't be the extremely generous schedule where they got a good portion of their home schedule playing teams the night after playing in Calgary or Vancouver.
