Still more work to be done but I am intrigued by the new additions and the revamped supporting cast.

It’s a move away from solid defense and no personality, and a move to more loose play but more PITA personality.

I think we’ll see some entertainment this season but some big moments of frustration from poor D. That being said will the change in direction result in a better playoff performance? It might..

The New additions, I feel will make us harder to play against. That however is just one part of our problem. Regular season success is a given, with the talent we have. Because playoff hockey is a different beast, this team will again fall short. Florida, Tampa, Columbus, Boston, Montreal, all stifled our PP. Reminder people this is the same PP unit the past 5 years. The last time we had a good PP, Kadri was here. We also had success the couple times Kapanen filled in.
Every team in the playoffs save our Leafs roll out 5 skaters, that can actually skate. I don't care how many goals a player scores in the regular season, if he cannot skate he should not be on the PP come play off time. Could be we don't need a PP in the playoffs. With a brawnier team we just might pull it off playing even strength..
