Which of these bottom feeder teams surprise and make the playoffs in 2024-2025?

I tried to pick teams that seem unlikely to make the playoffs next year based on last year's standings. A few are probably on the "bubble", but still.

The candidates are:

1. San Jose Sharks
2. Chicago Blackhawks
3. Anaheim Ducks
4. Columbus Blue Jackets
5. Montreal Canadiens
6. Utah Hockey Club
7. Ottawa Senators
8. Seattle Kraken
9. Calgary Flames
10. Buffalo Sabres

There are surprises in the standings almost every single season, so odds are at least 1 or 2 of those teams could make the playoffs. What's your prediction? Or do they all miss again?

Why? You have some good pieces now. It's not good to suck too long. It creates a bad culture.
