standings prediction

I just don't see the same SJ lineup from last year being better than CGY, even without Gaudreau. Markstrom and Sutter alone will have them in the WC conversation at worst

I think ottawa and Detroit will both compete for a wild card. I’d personally have Boston out of the picture, swap them with ottawa imo. I’d imagine you will be getting a lot of mad leafs fans on this but I like the placement, everybody else in the division other than Boston got better, the leafs got much worse imo. We shall see

Explain to me how a Bruins lineup without Marchand, Detroit, or Ottawa finish ahead of Toronto? People seem to think that Detroit and Ottawa will be better just because they have new, shiny, big pieces. Toronto already has top pieces that blow Detroits, Ottawas, and Bostons top guys out of the water. Ridiculous

wake up from the toronto spell that the hockey gods put on you the leafs arent as good as people think

Explain to me how. Matthews, Marner, Nylander, Tavares, and Rielly are miles better than Norris, Tkachuk, Stutzle, Giroux, and Chabot. They are light years better than Larkin, Raymond, Copp, Perron, and Seider... Boston is without Marchand, Grzelcyk and McAvoy for months
