The cover boy is Tyler Seguin
And
The Countdown based on a model devised similar to WAR but with other formulas called Game Score presented
There are two predictions - one subjective whatever - Bruins are 4th in division behind the 2 Florida teams and Montreal. Don't see it but I will wait till opening night when I have more information. The other is stat based and has an amazing success rate as far I can tell and is likely indicative of where they finish. This would have Boston 2nd in division and 4th in conference.
1. Pittsbugh 108.0
2. San Jose 103.8
3. LA Kings 101.7
4. Washington 100.9
5. Tampa Bay 100.3
6. Boston 99.7
7. St. Louis 99.7
8. Florida 98.4
9. Dallas 97.8
10. Montreal 97.7
11. Chicago 97.0
12. Nashville 96.3
13. Minnesota 94.9
14. NY islanders 94.0
15. Philadelphia 91.9
16. Detroit 91.7
17. Anaheim 91.6
18. NY Rangers 90.4
19. Calgary 90.0
20. Ottawa 90.0
21. Winnipeg 89.1
22. Columbus 88.1
23. Edmonton 87.4
24. Colorado 85.9
25. Toronto 85.2
26. NJ Devils 81.3
27. Carolina 80.7
28. Arizona 80.5
29. Buffalio 77.5
30. Vancouver 76.1
Few observations
I realize it is a formula called Game Score but I think Buffalo is to low. Boston seems a bit high but all the negative crap here from phony Bruins fans that secretly root against them so they can puff out there chest and say 'see I told you they suck Sweeney sucks' (like anyone cares or would remember by the next meal) may have clouded my take this is a good team
The spread on Seguin makes you just want to punch him for being so ****ing immature when he was here and forcing their hand.
