Most of my time in the off-season has been spent prepping the Grizzlies junior team, however from what I have kept up with in the Tampa Bay locker-room, we ought to be in for a big surprise.  Myself in net I'm hitting my first real year of regression (jesus, I'm old officially) but already back above the 2k TPE mark.  I shouldn't be an issue or liability for the team.  On the other hand of that coin, we have a very, very large group of players who are hitting that turning point in attributes and total TPE to where we ought to start seeing them pop off in the season.  A few of the Season 53-54 players are now hitting their 2k TPE marks as well and should really be popping off.   In the off-season, especially with some insight from the IIHF tournament champions of Great Britain, we should see a subtle shift in the way some of our tactics are ran as we continue to evolve our understanding of both the front end and back end of FHM.  This ends up posing the question:  Will this be Tampa's break out year?  Only time will tell.
