It's hard to be that bad TBH and sometimes you have to be "lucky" to be that bad.

This team could finish in 32nd or they could finish in 16th..

Look at this projected roster from September 10th 2024...I would have bet a lot of money this team finished bottom 5 and was in the McDavid sweepstakes.

As it stands I think I actually like this roster better than I liked the 14-15 roster on September 10 2014.

That roster had the emergence of Monahan and Gaudreau which pushed them into the playoffs, but it was at the time career best seasons for Hudler, Wideman, Giordano, and Brodie that actually were the bigger surprises.

I don't think we see that here, but I also don't see a guaranteed bottom 5 team.
