There haven’t been wide-sweeping changes in the summer, but the farm has been upgraded overall.
The two notable departures are Kieffer Bellows (Nashville Predators) and Josiah Slavin (Carolina Hurricanes). Otherwise, Cameron Gaunce, Dylan Gambrell, Max Ellis, Dryden MacKay, and Luke Cavalin move on to accommodate new faces.
Steve Sullivan is the lone change on the staff, joining as an assistant coach after Rich Clune departed for an NHL bench in Anaheim. John Gruden takes the helm for his second season, and he has two interesting challenges ahead of him.
Gruden will have to implement system changes from the big club.
