I'm giving up on the dream of having a strong defensive team.
I think defensive play will improve. GG says it's not close to what it was late last year. And like last year the same kind of progression is required ie they know they have another level.

Hamonic is going through similar transition as Dougie had. When his pairing solidifies the team will benefit.

Last year they were very aggressive at their blue line, stepping up and killing plays right there. This year the gaps are big and they're giving up the zone more. That will improve.
