Right now I'd be tempted to put Edmonton slightly ahead on the strength of McDavid. Though it's hard to ignore their terrible goaltending.
1. Toronto
2. Winnipeg
3-6: Edmonton, Calgary, Montreal, Vancouver
7: Ottawa
That's how I see it. Nothing puts Calgary ahead of that middle grouping.

WPG has a strong forward group but a very thin defensive group.
Few were putting them ahead of the Flames before the season started (and I don't mean here, I mean national media)
