first round exit. Good first 2 attack line, but I don't know if this D is good enough for playoffs

2nd round exit. Enough top talent to win a round, bad depth so..

I'm not sure why people are saying this team has bad depth-- this team has better depth than the current COL roster for the most part; tey just lack a defenseman like Makar.

ACGM goaltenders > COL goaltenders
Huberdeau = Rantanen
Buch = Landeskog
MacKinnon = MacKinnon (lol)
Hughes = Kadri (at least this season)
Copp > Lehkonen
Pavelski > Nichushkin
Carter > Sturm/Newhook/3C
Tuch = Burakovsky

and then you have Girard, Byram, Makar vs Pulock, Pelech, Weegar -- Sure, COL has one of the best defenseman in the game currently in Makar, but this ACGM defense is no slouch either.

This is a cup contender any way you slice it -- I wouldn't be surprised if this team went all the way.
