The group as it stands isn’t good enough to beat the Avalance or Lightning or Blues, but they are good enough to beat a lot of other teams.

They have lots of prospect capital and picks to work with, plus cap space. Nearly $12M comes off the books between Monahan and Lucic alone next year.
Precisely why I’m confused, short of another significant addition.
