Playoff Picture/Draft Lottery

What it could look like
3/23/2025 • Zach Brideau

With just over 10 games left in the 2024-2025 DCHL season we look at what the playoff picture could look like 

in the East

A1 MTL vs WC2  CAR

A2  Boston vs A3 DET

M1  Philly vs WC1 NYI

M2 NJD vs M3 CBJ

 

West

C1 MIN vs WC2 VGK

C2 CHI vs C3 DAL

P1 CGY vs W1 UTAH

P2 VAN vs P3 SJ

My prediction for the 2025 DCHL Stanley Cup is the Montreal Canadiens against the Vancouver Canucks. We will see the cup come North this season with the Montreal Canadiens win the cup after with history being made as the First DCHL team to win the cup following the year they held the 1st overall pick. Let the last 10 games begin has lots can change in the Atlantic. Will last years champs make it? will the 5 year rebuild Detroit Redwings finally make the playoffs this season let the battle begin.

 

The draft lottery is my favorite time of the year here is a look at what the top 16 couldd look like if there were no changes to the standings and no change with the lottery
