I just worry about where the goals are going to come from for this team.

Monahan is very much an unknown at this stage. Obviously we know he has produced in the past. But now with multiple surgeries, not playing with JG, can he still pot 20+ goals?

Can Backlund get to 20 goals? I am not optimistic on this front, 16 in 70 two years ago, 9 in 54 last year.

The bulk of the offense will have to come from JG, Tkachuk and Lindholm. Two of the three (JG and Tkachuk) often leave me wanting more in terms of effort.

I just see a million unknowns up front.
