As of November 2024 - which teams would you consider to be a strong Cup Contender for 2025?

  • Total voters
    160
I placed more emphasis on play so far this year and included the Jets because I don’t think their past is indicative of how good they are this year. Obviously a lot of this will change as it’s early.

Tier 1: Florida/Vegas/Winnipeg
Tier 2: Carolina/Rangers/Dallas
Tier 3: Oilers /Van/Colorado/Toronto

Reactions: Jets 31 and banks
Tier 1, heavy contenders: Florida, Carolina, Dallas, Vegas
Tier 2, contenders: Toronto, Winnipeg, NYR

Colorado would be listed if they had a goalie. But as is, the roster won't win anything.

From this option, I voted for Florida, NY Rangers, Vegas, Dallas, Edmonton, Colorado. Carolina, Winnipeg lacks superstar forwards, they always get found out in the playoffs. Toronto is Toronto.

Vegas, Dallas, Carolina and Florida don't have guys I'd consider "superstar forwards" and I'd say they all have a better chance than Edmonton, Colorado and the Rangers. I'll take 4 strong lines over one really strong line any day.

I have the Stars as my pick, but the Canes are not far behind.

For the Canes, I'm getting 2016 San Jose or 2018 Washington vibes from them. Both teams were perceived to be "past their prime," but used their hardship and playoff experience to make it to the finals, with the latter winning.
 
Right now.
Top tier: Caps, Jets, Panthers, Knights
2nd Tier: Oilers, Stars, ,Hurricane, Devils, Leafs, Wild, Avs.

The rest are not a threat to win the cup.

Personally I still don't buy into either Washington, Minnesota or Winnipeg being a serious contender. Definitely not tier 1.

2 months ago I had voted for Oilers, Florida, Vegas, Colorado and NYR. I wouldn't add any other team to that tier 1 group. Obviously Rangers have crashed and burned since then and probably don't belong in tier 1 anymore, though I still expect them to qualify for playoffs, so we'll see if they can turn it around, and to what extent.
 
Tier 1: Florida, Edmonton, Vegas, and Dallas

Tier 2: Toronto, Winnipeg, Colorado, Carolina

Outside looking in: Minnesota, Washington, LA, New Jersey

Toronto doesn't belong in any tier. Your outside looking in teams are all better than Toronto. Toronto has been ass for the majority of the season, goaltending has bailed them out a ton.
