Sorry, just getting used to Pens-Wings Finals.
you have buffalo at 11th ? WTF some fan you are. If we make the playoffs you need to post an apology to all us sabres fans
For shame!!!!
Not too bad ... I really like your predictions in the west, and although I thnk the Sens could sneak ahead and into 6th, at least you have them in.Overall, great thought out post.
i think caps win the cup to be honest
Leafs are better than last year... definitely better than Florida... potentially Buffalo's equal.
I don't think we see a wings Pens final for the 3rd straight year..
Decent predictions. I'm impressed that you didn't let yourself, as a Sabres fan, get blinded by fan-love and predict them higher. To me 11th is probably reasonable and they shouldn't fall further than that. From 7th to 11th it should be very tight so any of those teams could swap spots depending on injuries, etc.
wow, nice predictions... very close to mine. Only differences are, in east i got 7-13: Ottawa, Tampa, Montreal, NYR, Buff, Florida, Toronto, the rest the same in the east. In West I got Chi, Cal, SJ, Det, Van, Ana, Stl, Min, Clb, Edm, Dal, and last 4 same
he is being realistic about buffalo, what has buffalo do during off season really. try to replace spacek with montador brought back grier. I see them missing
Buffalo will surprise a lot of people this year. Staying healthy will be important. If miller and TV don't miss a chunk of time, the sabres will make the top 8.
I just think the NE division got a lot better in the summer while Buffalo kinda stayed the same. I think I probably could've put Toronto higher too (gasp).
