Detroit’s big addition this offseason was goaltender John Gibson, who was acquired in a draft-day trade with the Anaheim Ducks. He’ll try to help a team that ranked 20th in the NHL last year with an 89.6% save percentage. Gibson himself last year went 11-11-2 with a 91.1% save percentage and 2.77 goals against average.

For Chicago, the biggest story remains the development of 2023 first-overall pick Connor Bedard. Entering his age-20 season, Bedard has 128 points with 45 goals and 83 assists in 150 career NHL games.
