I'm not saying they'll be 15-20 points better in the standings, but they're going to be way more exciting and a better team with Johnny than they were with Bjorkstrand. This summer was a huge success for them. They picked up a legit star coming off a near-MVP season and gave up nothing but cap space to add that, at under $10M for seven years. How is that not a win?

They lost their 2nd leading scorer...good luck with +64 playing for the jackets
I said they improved already, not nearly enough though....they are good enough to not be in the lottery of an awesome draft but not good enough to make the playoffs
