While the goaltending situation may not be fixed, it certainly doesn't need to be lights out to be the same or better than last season.

I don't think we can expect the same number of players to have career years again though either.
Goaltending needs to be better and in general, the teams needs to play tougher hockey.
Some players will take a step back and some a step forward, but the only way to mitigate the risk that more take a step back, is to improve where you know the weaknesses were. Goaltending was a weakness, and I am not convinced it will be improved.
