I'm not predicting or guaranteeing anything, but maybe we get a surprise next year with a guy like Mike Hoffman coming in and scoring 22 goals and 41 points like Jamie Benn did in his rookie season with Dallas.

I'm talking about next season. We don't have *anyone* down on the farm, or anyone in the locker room to replace 50 points. And given how our season went down, we probably need a 60-65 points player (that is what many here were expecting from Kovalev). If we have cap relief we could get a $3M player (assuming Kovalev will eventually suit up).
I guess it all depends on where our cap situation is (that determines if we get relief or not) and how long he's expected to be out.

I'm not jumping off the bandwagon, I just don't think we have it this year. Still cheering, obviously.

I'm in the same boat as you. We both hope we're wrong.

I've read too many comments from people (regular people, mind you, not top athletes) about recovery times. A lot of them are saying it takes a year to get back to close to 100%.
