I'd say that it's still to early the predict standings (more trades and signings to come!) but your prediction looks pretty solid, I think I agree with most of it. Toronto v. Boston in the first round, that would be intense.

I'd say this is a pretty solid prediction, but maybe bump Ottawa up to 4th and move Montreal and Florida down 1 position each. Still early though.

Hold on, why is Florida in last? I like Toronto but their not the best in the Atlantic. Ottawa won't repeat the same success next year, especially not better than Tampa. Also, Boston should be better and Detroit should be in last.

No sophomore slump for Toronto's rooks?

This year i wasn't too sure about Florida and they missed when everyone else thought they'd make it. I really don't think Florida is there yet.
Also, i have Tampa beating Ottawa in the 1st round series, i just have Ottawa finishing higher in the standings.

Florida was hit by injuries this year, remember Huberdeau and Barkov?

Yea, as much as I hate to think it. I feel like there's a ligament chance that happens.

yeah, i know, and what if Ekblad gets injured? either way, i don't think they're good enough.
