The Toronto North Stars have been building for a while now. Pretty much since before Carter Manning was drafted in S39, the Stars have been grinding away and accumulating young talent. And so far, it's gone pretty well. So that's our first strength: we have a lot of young (S37 or younger) talent on this team. With this, we can only get better as some of the other squads like the Dragons and Jets start to regress. Second Strength: Our forward core is young and very talented. Out lowest TPE Top 9 forward is 667 TPE at the end of last sesason. It's not enough to compete with some of the big boys out there, but it's a fairly well balanced lineup for a very young team. All 9 players can contribute 20+ points. Last strength: The versatility of the lineup. Of the Top 9 forwars, we have 5 centres. This means that we can have versatility in the face-off circle. Along with the centre versatility, most of us forwards have focussed on the defensive side of the game, meaning we can all play up and down the lineup in any situation. Now for a few weaknesses: we did lose some guys to free agency this year, which is never good for a rebuilding team and our defence is still thin, even though it is much improved. We almost snuck into the 4th playoff spot last year, this year we might be able to do it.
