On the ice I'll be interested to see whether the accountability that has been talked about is actually enforced. Whether players who coast will get dropped and whether those that impress get moved up the lines. We relied heavily on SMC line last year and you never know maybe mixing that up might prove interesting...??
(Always wondered about the conflict between keeping lines with chemistry together and changing things up)
The tactics and style under PR will be interesting as well - he said it'll be big change for some of the players and less passive.
Off the ice it seems that things are changing a bit with increased commercial revenue - will be keen to see if that's to offset the rise in costs such as energy or whether we can expect to see investment of other areas off the ice as a result. (Wage cap meaning the extra income won't go on wages)
