Bruins likely struggle to crack the post season, not because they are bad, but rather so many key contributors are missing decent chunks of the season that it probably puts them behind the ball and they will have to grind in the last half of the season to make up the ground.
Toronto is 100% sink or swim on their goaltending. They are either fantastic, or they break the curse of 1st round exit by missing the playoffs entirely. I see no middle ground here. Matthews and crew don't seem to have the heart to save them game when their goalie has a bad night, as was shown with Campbell last season.
I think both Florida teams make the post season again, they are largely unchanged from the core rosters they had last year.
Sens, Islanders, and Blue Jackets likely enter the race for the wildcard spots with, and I have no clue what Carolina is going to do. They have taken on the Vegas plan of making massive changes each year, so they could be amazing again, or they could implode.
