None of the scouts seemed to acknowledge the fact that the Sharks lost their top 3 scorers at various points during the season and were coached by an imbecile for the 1st part of the season as well. Frankly I think last years team with BB as HC from training camp and no long term injuries to Couture, Hertl and EK65 and that team makes the playoffs easily.
We were bad before the injuries. The injuries just eliminated any chance of turning it around. Even during November we didn't look that good. Just not the complete train wreck we were in October.
Overall I think we are in the same overall position as last year, 1 long term injury away from a basement dweller. I dont think we have any impact prospects coming this year(maybe next year) and will be relying on 3rd line players who should probably be playing on the 4th line to provide depth scoring.
Overall I think our core plays better and a new system marginally improves our goaltending but we still end up missing the playoffs. Probably finishing 5th or 6th in the division.
