My assumption was that the list isn't a 'who is going to improve the most?' it is a who is going to finish highest in the standings?'
And with that assumption, I don't disagree with much of anything he said. Here is my list:
1. FLA (because their division has 4 of the 6 or 7 worst teams in the league)
2. CGY
3. STL (improved, but tough division)
4. DAL (see STL)
5. CHI (I agree that last year was an off year)
6. EDM (because they're not as bad as last year, and the rest of the list is awful)
7. CAR (who frickin' knows?)
8. NYI (see CAR)
9. BUF (we'll finally see some improvement)
10. ARI (I am not as optimistic as most, but the rest of the teams suck)
11. NYR (from here down it's just garbage)
12. MON
13. DET
14. VAN
15. OTT
