But who is moving down the roster?
I only have three players improving by 4 goals, the rest are flat coming off a season where all these players had non career average shooting percentage seasons. I see it as very conservative.
Monahan up as healthy
Backlund up to a spot between last year and the previous two years
Bennett up because I'm a fool and I predict it every year
My plan has Ferland down a single line to play with a center that tends to improve every player he plays with.
Then Frolik down as an assumption of being less productive from now going forward, but he is coming off a tragic on ice shooting percentage ... so to me down a line and up some luck and he stays flat.
I'm not predicting a tonne of inside improvement at all. Doesn't fit your narrative.
