Central Division Predictions

Some genius every offseason: "Dallas overachieved last season"

Maybe your analysis is just shit?

Don’t see it with Utah. They have almost no natural defenders up front or on the blueline. Below average goaltending. Most their skilled guys are smallish playmakers without any physical presence. They may get a boost like Seattle & Vegas did in their first year but, on paper, this is still a lottery team.

You don’t need Maccelli & Schmaltz when you have Cooley & Keller, IMO. If they want to take a leap, they have redundant assets with value they could weaponize to better balance their roster.

Maybe they prefer to wait until Iginla, Simashev, But & Lamorouix are ready. I wouldn’t blame them. They all bring a nice element that the current roster is presently lacking

1. Dallas
2. Colorado
3. Winnipeg
4. Nashville
5. Minnesota
6. St. Louis
7. Utah
8. Chicago

I think some of you are very much overestimating Utah.

I suggest that Minnesota is probably the most overrated team in the Central. Okay forwards, meh defence, and putrid goaltending.

Not a certainty no, but on track to return early seaon according to reports. Videos of his skating and progress are in the hfavs injury thread and it does look promising in a practice setting.

Right now we can only hope he’ll come back at a top six level but it’ll be huge just seeing him in the lineup for us fans and certainly his teammates.

Hope he makes it back and is close to what he was a couple years ago. That said, guys who play like him rarely age gracefully. Glad he got his bag and ring.
