Western Conference predictions updated ( assuming all RFA's sign since it's easier and no more UFA's ):

Pacific:
Vegas
Calgary
Edmonton ( because McDavid and Drai carrying )
Seattle
Vancouver ( defence puts them behind Seattle )
LA ( young team with regressing veterans )
San Jose ( goaltending is bad, defence big ? )
Anaheim ( young team with a goaltender that can't be god )

Central
Winnipeg ( I just prefer their depth to Colorado's )
Colorado ( who finishes their top 6 after Bura, Kadri, Mack, Rantanen, Landeskog and their top 4 after Makar, Girard, Toews drags them down )
Saint-Louis
WC1-Dallas ( assuming bounce-backs from most big names )
WC2-Chicago
Nashville
Minny ( forward depth is a big hole )
Arizona ( to everyone's surprise )


Metro
Philly ( bounce backs from Hart and Jones, their D and forwards are deep and good )
Carolina ( good depth and as long as Andersen/Raanta don't get injured they're a good team )
NYI ( LD is a concern after Pelech and grit doesn't always pay off in the regular season )
NYR ( Bounce-backs/improvements from their D, I like their goaltending and offence )
Pittsburgh ( Malkin being out for some time sucks, don't like their forward depth and D will be interesting )
Washington ( Goaltending is a big ? )
New Jersey ( good young team that has a chance but most likely an improvement year )
Columbus ( obvious )

i'll add the WC after i do the Atlantic, those will be my final predictions unless a big moves happens, ( an RFA refusing to sign will result in a review, so will a trade and a decent FA signing )

Anaheim being at the bottom makes sense as that logo sucks

Now if they went back to their old logo instant #1 for both namesake and beauty

Seriously Anaheim go make a deal with Disney so you can become the Mighty Ducks

Unpopular opinion - the original six logos are overrated. Only the Red Wings is top tier imo. Hurricanes and Lightning logos are better than the Habs, Leafs and Bruins.

All of the original six logos are overrated imo. All of them would be in the 10-20 range for me

I’ve got a question for you guys.

Who are some of most smart right handed right wingers? Those who have an incredible vision of the game and an unreal hockey IQ.

Mark Stone comes to mind.
Artemi Panarin
Mitch Marner
Filip Forsberg
Cole Caufield
T.J. Oshie

Edit: my bad I read right-handed wingers, not specifically right-wingers, so forget Panarin and Forsberg.

If they were relatively new nhl teams, no one would think their logos were anythings special. But each team has a long history and logos obviously grow on people over time.

And I agree the wild have the best logo devil1122.

The wings logo sucks imo, Habs logo is great but that’s most likely a homer opinion

My NHL player tier ranking

Tiers are in no order

Tier 1
McDavid

Tier 2
MacKinnon

Tier 3
Makar
Hedman
Kucherov
Panarin
Crosby
Draisaitl
Matthews
Hellebuyck
Vasilevskiy

Tier 4
McAvoy
Fox
Theodore
Josi
Pietrangelo
Hamilton
Marner
Rantanen
Kane
Stone
Huberdeau
Marchand
Pastrnak
Point
Barkov

IMO these are the truly ELITE players in the NHL. Could be missing a few.

Tier 3 and tier 4 were fairly hard to separate on 3-5 players

Is put Pettersson in tier 4, as well as Barzal. I’d think Matthews could be tier 2 but idk

I would put Kucherov and arguably Vasilevskiy in tier 2 as well. I definitely think that whatever tier Vasilevskiy is in, there shouldn’t be another goalie. Hellebuyck is the clear 2nd best goalie, but I wouldn’t say it’s a particularly close 2nd honestly. I’ve been thinking of doing something similar tbh, I might make one of these soon.
