They could be better but it will be because the younger guys are one year older and one year better. The impact of Pelletier and Ruzicka down the lineup will be the biggest improvement.
Going from Gaudreau/Tkachuk to Huberdeau/Kadri will be a big downgrade, one that swapping Weegar in for Gudbranson won’t make up.
But the regular season literally does not matter. Success now is only about playoffs whhen you’re this all in.
