Personally I think if Edmonton is a bit better this year in that every team in the west doesn't roll them I see it harder for 5 playoff spots to come from the central.
There will be a lot of .500 records of central teams vs central teams which will limit the amount of points accumulated in the division.
I personally think there will be 4 and 4 this year:
Pacific:
1. Anaheim
2. LA
3. San Jose
4. Calgary
5. Edmonton
6. Vancouver
7. Phoenix
Central:
1. St. Louis
2. Minnesota
3. Nashville
4. Dallas
5. Chicago
6. Winnipeg
7. Colorado
