Topic was considered a top-five talent in this draft class before suffering two knee injuries this past season — the latest being a partially torn ACL that will keep him out the entire…

Doughty continues to be a machine; the 34-year-old logged 25:48 of ice time per game last season, second in the NHL to Washington defenseman John Carlson at 25:54. After that, there are changes.
