Can't decide if I wanna change my avatar back to the regular lightning logo or just keep the golf one since I'm refusing to get my hopes up for this season.
HERE ARE MY I don't know shit but I am going to rank all the teams with bias. Enjoy: Metro Division. the metro division is the worst because any team can be good and any team can be bad more than the other divisions: 1. Capitals 2. Hurricanes 3. Penguins 4. Blue Jackets 5. Flyers 6. Devils 7. Islanders 8. Rangers Atlantic Division. I think this division is more set on who is the top half and who is on the bottom half. I don't think the Lightning will go on an insane start this year while I think the Bruins start the year better than they did last year. poor maple leafs tho.: 1. Bruins 2. Lightning 3. Maple Leafs 4. Habs 5. Sabres 6. Panthers 7. Red Wings 8. Senators Central Division. The Central is another division where there is a clear divide between the top half and the bottom half. I do think the Stars and Jets will have a good competition for that a wildcard but a lot more seperation between 3 and wildcard: 1. Predators 2. Avalanche 3. Blues 4. Jets 5. Stars 6. Blackhawks 7. Wild Pacific Division. I think the Golden Knights take the division this year. I would really love to see a Flames/Sharks matchup this year so this is more me being hopeful. I think there will be a clear division between the top 3 and the rest while I could even see the pacific not sending any wildcards this year.: 1. Golden Knights 2. Flames 3. Sharks 4. Ducks 5. Coyotes 6. Oilers 7. Canucks 8. Kings
Metro: Canes Caps Pens Atlantic: Lightning Leafs Bruins CBJ and Devils get last two spots Pacific: VGK Sharks Flames Central: Preds Avs Stars Blues and Jets get last spots ECF: Canes over Leafs WCF: Preds over Sharks SC: Canes over Preds not biased.
I just want Nashville vs Carolina finals. Don’t care how we get there. Give me the most southern finals possible.
Hot take maybe but I think the Central is a tougher prediction than the Metro. Metro 1. Washington 2. Carolina 3. Penguins 4. Flyers (WC) 5. NYI 6. NJ 7. NYR 8. Columbus Atlantic 1. Tampa Bay 2. Boston 3. Toronto 4. Florida (WC) 5. Buffalo 6. Montreal 7. Detroit 8. Ottawa Pacific 1. San Jose 2. Calgary 3. Los Vegas 4. Arizona 5. Vancouver 6. Anaheim 7. Edmonton 8. Los Angeles Central 1. Nashville 2. St. Louis 3. Colorado 4. Dallas (WC) 5. Winnipeg (WC) 6. Chicago 7. Minnesota
I think Carolina is closer to a wild card team than the top of the division, but I could see seeds 2-5 in the Metro being separated by like 4 points.
Look, I like the way Colorado is built for sure, but there's no way they should be the third favorite this season.
