The Atlantic is just comical this year.
- Boston lost all of their centers in one fell swoop
- Tampa relied on Jonas Johansson for more than a couple of hours
- Toronto has been in absolute shambles, again
- the two Atlantic teams that were supposed to take steps forward (OTT/BUF) have been catastrophically shit
- Detroit is playing with half of a beer-league D corps and their third string goalie
- Montreal exists
- half the division has had their starters injured / become AHLers overnight
... and of course, as everybody predicted, that's going to get them five playoff spots. A lot of Metropolitan coaches are going to get canned in a couple of months, and for a f***ing good reason too.
