Will it make for entertaining hockey? Maybe not, but wins are entertaining, so hoping for that.

I was thinking that too, that both Zadorov and Gudbranson would help with clearing the front of the net. However Gudbranson simply wasn't very good at that last season. I hope that analytics are wrong and he will be like Tanev, but right now it's hard to expect anything above a replacement level player.
