Lather, rinse and repeat.
Without at or near PPG game seasons from Lindholm, Tkachuk and Gaudreau, and a semi respectable season from Monahan 55-60 points (which is an incredibly low bar) and a top 5 season from Markstrom, this team does not have the horses to get into the post season. Even in a weak division.
If the above does somehow occur, I'm still betting at best it's a 6/7th place finish with next to no chance of any prolonged playoff run given the loaded teams with legitimate depth and star power at center that this flawed roster won't be able to match.
