Its early, if they can get through these injuries, they can contend for playoff spot in East, if not then make sure they have good chance at #1 pick.

No chance they're contending even when healthy lol

Yeah, I'm going to disagree. They are really only missing two players Staal and Skinner. Those are big players to lose but the roster would still be thin without them, especially on D. That team is a trainwreck on D. The flip side is that picking top 2 would be a great way to spark a turnaround though they probably need more work than that.

It is going to be a long season if E. Staal is out for a long time
