1) Vancouver - They don't look as overpowering as years past, but still a very good team
2) Calgary - This doesn't mean they're exceptional, its just that Canadian teams are great
3) Ottawa - I think they were Cinderella last year, a house of cards.
4) Winnipeg - I think they're a good young team but they're a year away
5) Toronto - I question their goaltending and I don't like their forwards much, their defense is expensive and I think a bit over rated.
6) Montreal - This team is a mess, if Subban misses time they're heading for the bottom. The saving grace for this team is goaltending and some good young players.
7) Edmonton - Too many holes to do much, The young players have to do more then just have fun, they have to develop all aspects of their game. I don't much like their bottom 6 forwards, their blue line is better with Fistric but still middle of the road. Not sold on Dubynk based on a hot streak. Its going to take time like the Flames for the new coach to figure things out.
