Summer Poll - How will we do in 2024-25 based on the roster today?

[Lafleurs Guy]

Dog days of summer are here. Perfect time for a poll to see what people think about where we're at. Assuming we make no more moves this offseason, how do you think we'll do in the upcoming offseason?

[Lafleurs Guy]

I think we're a bubble team on the outside looking in.

Picking between 7-12

Picking between 7-12

I think closer to 12th than 7th.

I will say this, it's not crazy to think we might make it this season. A lot would have to go right but there's so much upside with the additions, improvements of Dach, Hutson, CC, Newhook, Slaf...

 

[the valiant effort]

Playoffs and at least one series win

 

[Seb]

I would not be surprised if we made the playoffs.

I would also not ne surprised if we finished bottom 5.

It's going to be a very interesting season.

 

[Vachon23]

Bottom 10

 

[Leon Lucius Black]

I think they finish similar to Buffalo last year, around 11th last and 84 points which would be 8 more than last year.

 

[L4br3cqu3]

Returning injured players will obviously help, and we lost so many games by only 1 goal...

But, there are too many unknowns yet, many 'meh' players we're stuck with for at least another year, and still lots of young players.

Voted bottom-10, but wouldn't mind eating crows at all if we're better than that.

 

[HabSgt]

85 points, good for 22nd in the league.

Huzzah we have achieved mediocrity.

Now watch them win the Cup.

 

[Darz]

August is the time to be optimistic. I think the forward group as a whole will be better than last year, the D group will be slighty better. If the goaltending can stay on par with last year and we see an improvement in the PP, I say we make the playoffs.

Atta boy!

 

[Habs10Habs]

I think we see the improvement that we should have seen last year. If Dach and Newhook weren't injured. Bottom 10.

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

If our PP can improve with dipshit gone, if we stay healthy, if we have progression from our top line and if we have a couple of surprises at camp could be a bubble team but that’s Bergevin level if’s that need to hit. Still too soft and no depth up front.

 

[Nevins]

I hope they finish in the last 5 ranks to draft Porter
MARTONE or RYABKIN.

We should see progression from the top six. Hutson's a wild card and so is Roy. But both have great potential.

We have to stay healthy. If we get that, we'll progress. Maybe not to the playoffs but we'll be better than last year.

 

[Tyson]

We will improve quite a bit and play meaningful games all the way until the trade deadline. Alot of these guys are entering their 3rd season and that alone should help improve the team.
Upward trajectory!

 

[atrud66]

picking 5-10

 

[sampollock]

No big changes
Dach back is all.
Sane old but maybe a pick from 5-10 range

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Bottom 5, they’re gonna get f***ed up

 

[Vachon23]

I don’t expect the PP to improve that much. The 1st PP will probably be the same

 

[vokiel]

I tried to be a little more positive than usual, but hum.. I did that last season too, and they finished in the exact same spot.

The Kirby Dach injury was so devastating. If he was healthy we'd have done better - and missed out on Demidov.

Silver linings.

 

[GoodKiwi]

Bottom 10.

 

[Maitz]

Just looking at the division I don't see how we don't finish last in our divison so bottom 5-7 Maybeeee DET could have a bad year but I don't see them dropping that far
