I'll be interested to see how the D starts out this season, with Carle Hedman Salo better able calm the back end and start the breakout rather than the way they looked lost running around and panicked last season when pressure was applied I think this will be the key. Less time in the D zone and less leaving the goalie hung out to dry then they should improve immensely. |

Exactly. This new defense looks much better able to move the puck out of the zone quickly and effectively. Calm is the key word that you use, I think. Salo is the epitome of calmness and that should rub off on Hedman. |

One problem will be who is the main shot blocker back there. Brett Clark was the leader in that department |

Eric Brewer was 11th in the league so I don't know that it's that much of an issue. Clark may have been 2nd but his defensive gaffes cost the Lightning more than his blocking help, IMO. Carle was 15th in the league too so I don't think it's that much of an issue. |

Can't wait. Was at fan fest and going tonight. It will all come down to the D and goaltending. Hopefully Carle can be the puck moving D we have been missing since Boyle was uh dumped...for Matt Carle.
I've no predictions...with the short season who know what the hell is going to happen! |
