I wouldn't worry about them as super contenders but the team made the playoffs this year.
Add Hughes and add Makar and I don't see how the team is worse. Those guys are probably 2 of the top 5 prospects in the world right now. They have a ton of cap-room and only Rantenan and a goalie to sign of note. If they do get a goalie, I think they are easily favoured to repeat making the playoffs. At least soon.
