I think this is the year we finally see the Boston Bruins miss the playoffs with the Atlantic looking like a brand new division. we also will see the Vancouver Canuks miss the playoffs for the second straight season- is it time for a rebuild for them? what else can GM Brission do? I think this could also be the last year we have the Redwings in the bottom 10. I think next year we see them make another step forward in there rebuild I give threm 1-2 more years and we will have another good team in the atlantic. The Florida Panthers this is a team that will be good for the years to come with lots of top quality players coming through there system, there in good hands with GM Levergneux.The Oilers and Captitals will fight for that 1st overall pick who will get it. Right now it goes too the OIlers but there is a good chance the Capitals will take the 1st overal spot from the Oilers. The Senators I think there caught in the middle and might be at a road block with the Canadiens and Lightning making the jump up this year it pushes the senators down in there division maybe it's time too look at selling some old guys off who still have some value left like Ovechkin and get some assets to help in the future. The Seattle Kraken man where to start lol he just never made up his mind with what he was doing first going for it then rebuild to going for it and now says rebuild I hope he sticks to that plan and see at what these new teams coming up did they sticked to there rebuild plan and now look at them, the key is to be patient.
