The lack of intellectual integrity is staggering.
Toffoli was 107th in the league in points last season - forwards within 2 points of him include Keller, Cirelli, Tkachuk, Schmaltz. He had more points than players like Duchene, Rakell, Zucker, Strome, Mantha, Kessel, Zuccarello, Johansen, Hertl and other fantastic top 6 players. He was also 47th in goals, scoring as many as Svechnikov, Huberdeau, Konecny and Kreider.
Anderson was playing injured; is he a 30 goal 60 point guy? Of course not, but he should be expected to put up production similar to Tom Wilson. The value of Anderson is not the points he brings either, but the two-way reliability, penalty killing and physical contributions.
Allen started in 21 games last year and went 12-6, and spent the previous 5 years either being the primary netminder or splitting time as a 1/2 split - he is probably one of the best backup goaltenders in the League, and will offer relief to a goaltender who has had to shoulder all the weight for the last 5 years.
Frolik and Perry are bottom half of the lineup guys, but Montreal now has one of the strongest 3rd/4th lines in the League, and injuries to forwards will be of little issue to a team that has 14 NHL caliber forwards.
Edmundson was 7th for ATOI in Carolina during the regular season, behind only Slavin, Hamilton and Skjei defensively. In the playoffs, he was 3rd amongst defensemen, only behind Slavin and Hamilton (the latter by a minute a game)
It takes 2 seconds to google anything you said to realize you have no idea what you are talking about.
The success of the Canadiens will ultimately depend on a few different things
1. Are Suzuki and Kotkaniemi going to build upon their playoff performances
2. Can the new additions be what they were brought in to be (Toffoli - 25+ goal/82g pace - Anderson 40ish points/82 game pace + physicality)
3. Can Price stay healthy
4. Will the defense give up less 2-on-1/2-on-0s.
5. Can the PowerPlay figure it out
If the answers are favourable in all of those situations, then the reality is that Montreal is a very strong team in the East. They have great secondary scoring, they're a big physical team while also being one of the faster teams in the League. Their issue is center depth (which may not be an issue at all) and goal scoring, however with their current roster scoring should not be an issue anymore either.
