Now that all the big name free agents have signed, what are your predictions in standings for the 2024-25 NHL season?
Whoa, whoa!Bottom 5 in the league will still be Chi, CBJ, Anaheim, SJ and the new addition of Calgary instead of Montreal.
The Flames aren’t even trying in FA. Which is the correct move. They won’t be anywhere close to the cap. The tank is on.Whoa, whoa!
Don't discount Montreal's tanking skills.

Conroy is doing a good job there. A top 3 pick would really make that "reset" look nice.The Flames aren’t even trying in FA. Which is the correct move. They won’t be anywhere close to the cap. The tank is on.
Edit: Even with their new contracts they’re still 20 million under the cap and I wouldn’t expect them to make any big moves.
I am not sure if you inadvertently missed a few teams, but I could see Buffalo being relegated to the AHL (not Minnesota though).
