That's a great question. Tampa has the better top six IMO, mostly because they have a top goaltender under contract. Vegas has better depth, especially down the middle. They have no goaltender under contract which is a wild card. Frankly, I wouldn't bet on either busting in the next two years. Both teams just have too many good players and have good management which always seems to find a way to get the talent they need. A better target would have been Boston, who seems like they are a house of cards just waiting for the wind to come up. Three forwards under contract for 2025-26, four defensemen, and no goaltenders. They do have three RFAs that could provide some depth, but they are thin.
