Quoting: HockeyScotty
Oh for sure, that is why I listed Buffalo and Colorado in that conversation and you would have to add Dallas (Heiskanen) and Kings (Anderson). Anaheim, Jersey, and Columbus have potential but they are at best 1 good year away from being in that "elite" level. Avs with Makar + Byram is tough to beat.
COLORADO: Makar + Byram + Behrens + Malinski
BUFFALO: Dahlin + Power + Samuelsson + Jokiharju
DALLAS: Heiskanen + Lundqvist + Harley + Bichsel
LA: Anderson, Durzi, Brandt, Bjornfot, Spence, Moverare
NEW JERSEY: Hughes, Nemec, Bahl
ANAHEIM: Drysdale, Mintyukov, Zellweger, Helleson, Vaakanainen, LaCombe, Benoit,
COLUMBUS: Boqvist, Jiricek, Mateychuk, Bean, Berni, Knazko
