I was going to say 20 but then I don't really like the number so I'll go with 21!

Last year you had 19 ... I don't think you'll be as strong as last year but you'll be more talented. A lack of veteran leadership and a young crew will find long losing streaks in amongst the occasional wins. You'll probably see Knotek gone at Xmas which will make the 2nd half even tougher.
I'll say 15 wins ... more than 20 would have to be considered a success.

I'll say 15 wins ... more than 20 would have to be considered a success. I hear ya, and agree. They'll get 15 on the improved talent and enthusiasm of youth. If the teaching of the coaches sinks in and we don't get out-coached in games (especially home games, arg ! ), 20 or more could be realized. I voted 19, but would think that 20 is the benchmark for claiming it a successful season.

They could get 25 wins and it not be a success if the likes of Knotek, Cheremetiev, Brunet, Amyot and the vets take all the icetime and the youth finds themselves on the bench or in the stands. This year is about rebuilding.

I'll say 20 on the nose with 10 more points in the OL/SO column, enough to ensure a first round against Quebec.....
