I think we’ll probably miss the playoffs next year but not actually be a worse team. The central is just really crowded and the margin for error is tiny. The following year will be Makar’s rookie season. Jost, Girard, and Kerfoot will all have a couple years experience. That’s when we should really find out what this core is made of.
I'll reserve my final thoughts until after UFA but yeah, unless they bring in a Tavares or Stastny, this team will take a step back. A lot of things went right this year despite all the injuries.
