Colorado is definitely a team on the rise, but they may have overreached a bit last year. They definitely have a few weaknesses, and the playoffs proved that. But even if they take a step back next year (points wise, as development wise, they'll probably be right where they should be) they'll be a top tier team very soon. Maybe in Iggy's last year?

Although, and I'm just throwing this out for fun, hasn't the Jack Adams shown to be a bit of a curse for the coach/team that wins it?
It'll probably be as soon as they can get 2 top pairing defenseman. I haven't seen anyone comment, but I can see while a lot of people can see a lot of talent up front, did everyone ignore their blueline being pretty average?
