After the first day of training camp I started to map out where the goals would come from and this is what I think everyone needs to to target to reach the same total offense as last year.
Huberdeau 25 / Lindholm 35 / Toffoli 30
Mangipane 30 / Kadri 25 / Dube 20
Milano 10 / Backlund 15 / Coleman 15
Lucic 10 / Ruzicka 10 / Lewis 5
Rooney 5 / Ritchie 5
Callups 5
Weegar 10 / Tanev 2
Hannifin 8 / Anderson 5
Zadorov 5 / Kylington 10
Stone 2 / Valimaki 3
Call up 1
Total 291
1st line - 34 goals (basically going from 3 allstars to 2 allstars).
2nd line +12 goals (Kadri coming in to replace Backlund)
3rd line + 3 goals (with Backlund hopefully much healthier than Monahan).
4th line + 4 goals (with a full time Ruzicka)
Reserve +10 goals (assuming either we have more IR callups or more impactful trade deadline this year).
Defense + 5 goals (basically swapping Gudbranson for Weegar should come with a small bump).
Is it possible? Who's going to struggle? Or is the offense going to drop off?

Sutter mentioned that he believes dube is a better left winger than a right winger in todays presser.
Wonder if he’ll slot him with backlund-Coleman instead
