I really don’t see Colorado finishing under the century mark. I feel like Mac can will his way to more wins

minnesota with 102 points LOL

I do see the Pacific division being a two team race between Edmonton and Vancouver. It feels like both teams did a good job of keeping their teams together for the most part, and both made some solid free agent moves.

Fucking 111???

Same projection that had us 5th last season with 92 points –

I think we will be a playoff team but I am not sure we will achieve more points than last season as a lot of our players had career years last year. I think we would be better prepared some playoff time.
On another note, I am surprised they are that low on Nashville. I think Nashville should be a 100+ point team with their additions.

JFresh is a hack, we’re obviously going to get 164 points next year.

Tied with the Oilers? Not bad at all but I don’t see us doing that well.

I think the Pacific will be a 3 team race. Vegas is one of the best coached teams in the league and will have a full year with Hertl/Hanafin. The biggest question for them will be health related of course.
I don’t think Winnipeg will be near the top of the Central. And there’s no way that Minnesota will be there either.

J Fresh is just Superstore in disguise

i doubt we’ll get that many points, but i’d love to be wrong

Kind of surprising, but then you look at the bottom of the division and that’s probably were all the points will come from.

I am really hoping that we are one of the best teams in the league again next season! I want to temper my expectations because I feel like this year was SO GOOD for us, but there’s always the x factors of departures and acquisitions. That said, if we’re able to stay competitive and make it back into the playoffs I will be stoked! Go Canucks Go!

Optimistic for Vancouver I think. I’d wager we’ll end up in the 100-105 point mark. I also doubt the top team in the league is only at 111 points. I’m also skeptical of the Avs at just 99 points.

FWIW here’s an image I found in the Blackhawks’ sub for 23/24’s season projections in July 2023.
I do think we’re only sending 3 teams to the playoffs this year
LA took a step back, Nashville a step up and everyone else in the Pacific sucks

Looks about right. I don’t think it is perfect, but most divisions look good.
I think he nailed the Pacific, although I doubt Edmonton and Vancouver get 111 points. It should be a two-way race.
I have the most problems with the Central. I’m not happy with what Dallas did during free agency. They still have a shot at first place, but not with that many points. On the other hand, Nashville seems low; there’s no way they got worse during free agency. I would flip Winnipeg and Colorado and then have Minnesota. Maybe even have Utah in fifth place.
Not sure Jersey is going to earn first in the Metro, but is should be a close three-way race.
I think Boston tops Toronto for second in the Atlantic. If Ottawa earns the last playoff spot over Detroit, I would be so happy. Also, Montreal shouldn’t be that low. Last place sure, but not that far behind.

I fail to see how Nashville takes a step *back* after adding Stamkos, Marchessault, and Skjei while their only major departures are McDonagh and Sherwood

As an Canucks fan in Ottawa, I’d absolutely love if both the Canucks and the sens made the playoffs (just to experience playoff hockey in my own city lol) but I really don’t see the sens making it. WC2 at best.

We only play the oilers 3 times next season.. less easy points to take from them 😔
zagpe
fake list. isles higher !11!!🤑
YouCanFucough
So after all the additions Nashville made they’re projected to finish with 4 fewer points than last year?

New jersey going from not making playoffs to top of metro seems unlikely to me.
metrichustle
I prefer being underdogs, but it’s great we finally have the respect across the league. But Vancouver being higher seeded than the Cup Champs.
nice.
votrechien
Seems reasonable. I feel like next year the sun may set on Tampa and/or Vegas (Vegas especially)
iLikeSoupp
We are definitely going to fall for some regression. Last year was a career year for many of our depth/key players. I think we’ll be in the playoffs (fingers crossed) but it won’t be as easy it was this year to get in.

Those single period between the letters of the two-initial teams is really annoying me. Reminds me of the kid who would put the period on the wrong side of his initial back at my elementary school.
Fuck you, Matt . T

If we had a better D I could see this, but atm I dont see us tying the oilers
