Scouting The 2014-’15 Binghamton Senators: Offense
By Jeff Ulmer
This team might have a difficult act to follow in the footstep’s of last season’s success as that squad put on a performance to remember as a well oiled machine that led the league in scoring, as we now focus on the second installment of Scouting The 2014-’15 Binghamton Senators concentrating on the offense.
After their AHL best 276 goals, the challenge’s ahead will be in not necessarily duplicating that kind of firepower, but how effectively the new addition’s will do, mostly as secondary weapon’s as the B-Sens just might have enough resources to follow-up on the task at hand making it somewhat plausible.
Mark Stone is gone, having graduated to the big club. Mike Hoffman won’t be sent down after signing a new two-way deal exposing him to waivers. Stephane Da Costa and Andre Petersson have joined the recently departed that also had big roles fitting the pieces of the puzzle together.
