I guess they’ll do it but don’t ask me to quantify that i.e. Who’s scoring what ? Maybe Yzerman has one of those spiffy A.I. computers?

4 lines of 3 fwds x 3 additional goals each =36. Cool! BUT 1/3rd of the team is new guys so we cant know how they’ll score on this team. Darn it. They should do Better I guess but then you have surprising Sprong who scored well last season at around 20. But so did traded Kubalik…so that’s a wash IF Sprong does 20 again but that was his first 20, so ???

So we’ll just have to watch and count as the Wings shoot them in. The minimum playoff number is 271… however it happens. Go Wings
