1.  Goal:  Lamolinara is gone.  There is a highly regarded RF on the roster and OCC's goalie coming in.  I doubt Wardwell sees the field again.  Evaluation:  Big PLUS +

2.  Defense:  With the exception of Mullins, the defense was largely a mess.  There are incoming LSMs, defensemen and middies.  To make and impact as a freshman at a pole, you have to be really, really good.  Hopefully, some of the incoming middies are DMids and will shore up this area of weakness.  Evaluation:  Question Mark ?

3.  FOGO:  Yes, after 3 1/2 years Daddio finally figured out the X...to an entent.  Because of his non-existent stick skills, even when he won a face-off, it was an adventure.   SU struggles at wing play.  Evaluation:  Going out on a limb and saying that one of the 4, count them 4, incoming FOGO guys will pan out and place less stress on wing play.  Evaluation:  Plus +

5.  Offense: The offense was rounding into shape nicely when they ran into Bryant's zone and gave the impression of never having seen one before.  Will the staff coach them effectively to face zones?  Will they find someone with a cannon of an outside shot to foil the zone?  Evaluation:  Question Mark ?

Thoughts?
