your rankings do not work because 2 teams from the same division are 2 and 3. the top 3 are division champ seeds regardless of points.
in both conferences. |

| Geez, my brain is still set on NFL,.. explains how the Caps finished so high last year. Well, I'll repost later and keep Toronto right where they are :p |

| speaking of division seedings, the NHL is re-considering giving those division winners automatic seedings, they may turn to a points-related system instead. |

Here's the vintage jerseys that the team will be wearing at certain games this year.

@spin
it would be awesome if they went to a pure points system. |

I think the following teams may have break-through years this season: Tampa Bay, Boston, Chicago, Phoenix.
For TB with Stamkos, Meszaros, Roberts, Ryan Malone, they've definitely improved. In Chicago, with Kane and Towes, along with Huet and Campbell on D, I think they'll be a lot better. With PHX, the young blood and minor tweaks they've done in the off-season SHOULD pay off for them; plus they actually have a goalie in Bryzgalov. Boston is a dark-horse; Bergeron back, Fernandez back, Ryder maybe playing well again?
I think the following teams will drop-off: Ottawa, Rangers, Nashville, Vancouver
Ottawa lost a lot of guys, though their top 3 are still intact. Rangers are still have some overpriced talent (gomez, drury, redden) and have lost Jagr. Vancouver, without Luongo, they're nothing + better hope the Sedins can carry the load with Naslund/Morrison gone.
ALL speculation at this point!! |
