All valid points.
I guess my main concern is the way Dubas and Shanahan have built this team. Everyone and their dog knows we need help on defence, mainly the right side. Maybe we can address it before or at the trade deadline, but only if at least one of the following- Rielly, Ceci, or Johnsson are out the rest of the season, and we can use that extra money on an upgrade or two. But that’s only possible because one or more of our players got injured.
Now if we were fully healthy, I believe we could win at least one round. However, as I previously stated, the defence needs to be addressed, but probably won’t happen until the summer. Only then, I believe, will we be able to truly be Cup contenders.
Dubas is going to have to pull a monkey out of his ass before I have any faith in him!
