Would love a few honest opinions on my team ?!

Real solid, all around built team.

 

Goaltending will never be a problem. Defense has no star standout player but altogether will be a consistent and productive backend. Very much like the makeup of the forward group as well. Hossa will be the X Factor. Depending on if he bounces back or not, should determine if your forward production will be great or good. But even if Hossa doesn't regain his form, doesn't really matter as Holtby and everyone else will pick up his slack for him.

 

All in all, a team that will give anyone a run for their money come playoff time.

That is one solid assessment, really appreciate that.

Strength of the team is from the back. Your 5 D are all solid, and could actually be better than it appears if Martinez shakes off his concussion issues and Dumba takes the next step in his development. Then of course there is Holtby.

 

Forward production is a curious study for me. On one hand, you have a couple HOF'ers on your 2nd(!) line and a solid Lightning duo on the top. On the other though, Zetterberg's and Hossa's contracts could get really ugly fast if they show anymore age. Both may even retire earlier than their contracts being up, which would be a blessing (getting rid of those contracts) and a curse (losing significant depth) at the same time.

 

I think your D corp and goalie will always have you treading water between average and solid. How much Hossa and Zetterberg can produce while battling father time will be the key to being in the realm of top contenders or not....Kind of reminds me of the present day Sharks. The cup window is there if the old guys produce, but it's banking heavily on the now and not the future.

I've seen worse, but you have 5 RW's and only 1 center.

You will probably finish right on the bubble of making the playoffs, if you do get in you will likely be done pretty quickly. You will have to rode Perry and Bishop as long as you can for any chance at moving forward.

 

My need to get a 4th defenseman quickly as it's getting very very thin already, Time to start adding some vets in the later rounds to solidify your team.
