Blue Jackets won't be higher than the Av's, other than that, I agree with your list. |

ElFreak....I think I agree:(
The Sharks will make it almost to the end and themselves for the seventh year in a row.
I blame the coach.:whip: |

| They (sharks) are strong this year. Should be good hockey I hope. Gotta see a few games to really see or make a call. |

Sakic is Sakic. Come play-offs, he's even more so. :D |

the avs will not make the playoffs.
sakic is finished. We already saw the signs last year.
still one of the greatest players of his time, but not enough to get them in the playoffs imo. |

Finished on the ice after a long season perhaps. But irreplaceable in the locker room. Especially in a young team. |

| As much as I want Washington to win their division, I have a feeling Tampa Bay's policy of signing everyone in sight plus Stamkos who will be bigger than any of the new players since Ovechkin & Crosby will win it. |

watch your mouth wnen you are talking about my team...hell no they won't finish 11th. that's just embarrassing
also montreal at #1 again is extremely unlikely. it has been over a decade since a team finished #1 seed in the east back-to-back PLUS the points race at the end of the reason was very close. montreal and pittsburgh flip flopped a couple times in the last two weeks of the season. also that #8 position on both ends could have gone to almost anyone! i mean carolina found out they were out the last day of the season at the end of the last game. you can only say with conviction that maybe 6 teams will finish out of the playoffs and that is it. |
