I think Bennett is my first choice.
Your suggestion of better youth is certainly valid.
My biggest worry in the 3M line as you have a sophomore and a guy coming off a career year in Backlund.
I think an uptick from the blueline is likely.
But I think the biggest source could be the top line. No back injury, hopefully no broken hand, certainly no big contract adjustment, no new coach adjustment, plus the suggestion that Monahan may have gone another level in off season work has me pretty intrigued to see if they both go to the 35 goal level plus this year. Additionally, I think Ferland could be a 20 goal guy this year as well.
