Everyone on the Ducks needs to show improvement, except Vatrano who probably won’t duplicate last year.
The two that I’m concerned about are Terry and Zegras.
Terry needs to be a 30 (+) goal scorer.
Zegras is the biggest concern. He needs to be at 60+ points. Regardless of wing or center, he needs to be a “semi” responsible forward that can put up points.
The outcomes I see are:
Everyone on the team improves and the team wins more and takes a step toward the playoffs - Good for PV and Cronin
Everyone on the team improves except Zegras and they win more - Bad for Zegras.
Overall little improvement and the team is still bottom 5 - Bad for PV and Cronin. Cronin probably gone. Zegras stays.
Obviously there are all sorts of outcomes in between these.
