Lightning Round: How do you prepare for the season?

After a couple of weird off-seasons this one has had an overwhelming sense of being normal. Yes, the draft and free agency was delayed a bit and the main stream media had to wait a couple of weeks to head to their lakefront cabins, but now we’ve kind of hit that point where we can look forward to next season.

Most of the big free agents are signed and teams have a general idea of what their roster is going to look like to begin the season. There may be another trade or two to clear up some cap space or shore up a depth spot.
