The Atlantic Division in the NHL is arguably the toughest in the league. Every team looks like it could make the playoffs next year, but unfortunately, not every team will.
I recap the offseason for the Montreal Canadiens, Ottawa Senators, Buffalo Sabres, Detroit Red Wings, Tampa Bay Lightning, Toronto Maple Leafs, Boston Bruins, and Florida Panthers.
In the end, I will also give my protection, where I think all the teams will finish and who makes the playoffs.

Who do you think will be the top team in the Atlantic?
Bruins/ Toronto / Florida/ Detroit /Tampa Ottawa/montreal Buffalo .I feel like Ottawa might be higher .
I don’t think Boston will be the top team. I truly believe they tanked the last couple games last year to get Toronto instead of tampa.
This season i see Boston being a wild card team and Florida taking the division again
I pretty much agree with your standings. It's just a matter of centimeters
Bruins May edge out Panthers, Florida is going to be tired after two back-to-back Stanley Cup final appearances.
I don't think anyone's going to blow anybody away
I'm going to put Ottawa as a dark horse team… One of those teams where statistics on paper don't really matter.
I think we're going to hear noise out of Ottawa and buffalo might lose a few fans.
I don't know what's going on in buffalo. 🤔
But they better get their ship right or they're going to lose their franchise in that oversaturated hockey area of the continent. So many fans want nordic's back!
We'll see how long Montreal tanks to keep getting those top draft picks – but I'm keeping my eye on Cayden Primeau. He may make just enough difference in Montreal this season – been gnawing at the bit waiting for Jake Allen to move along so he could get his shot.
Comes from a great hockey family and I don't think he's going to blow his long-awaited opportunity.
Patrick Laine is likely going to make a difference
Unfortunately, Buffalo might end up taking the bottom spot. I can see Montreal crawling up.
Great stuff!
Hey ! Quick mention that the Habs RECEIVED Laine and a 2nd round pick for Harris
