have you correctly sacrificed the children for the ritual
Real talk, I'm honestly a bit out of the loop on the subject but I know Nashville got a long term steal with the defenseman trade. I was rather surprised that San Jose got that far last season but then again they didn't have much pressure. This said it should be harder on them and I think Nashville has a lot of tools to finally go really far, probably the Conference finals at least. Chicago's still a safe pick, probably LA also. Western Canada may be a bit less of a laughingstock, although if there's one team going way south it should probably be Vancouver. Not to say I think the Oilers are going to be amazing but with a decently healthy McDavid they can't be all that crappy. Minnesota's ok I guess, Dallas and St Louis should still be good and I wouldn't bet against Anaheim unless I missed something. Arizona's new GM is probably the most interesting aspect of the team, but I'd say results should be expected next year.
In the East I'm not expecting much. I want Detroit to remain in the playoffs but I don't think that'll happen. New York and Boston seem shaky too, but then again I'm not expecting much from say Carolina, New Jersey or Buffalo. Tampa Bay should still be the dominant team with The Pens a bit behind. I guess I want the Flyers to progress perhaps, they usually have fun teams in Philly. Washington isn't going to do jack once the real games are going to be played.
And then there's Montreal who needs Jesus Price to be anything higher than mediocre. Toronto's there too I guess. If Matthews can repeat that every game, that's a pretty decent 328 goal season right there.
