Description

Lets be fair the Leafs dont have as good a roster as Tampa or Florida. Gonna have to battle it out with boston and mtl for the third spot in the ATL. Metro is very strong so I think 5 from the metro make it and 3 from the atlantic.

Troll post? Would you not think some of the older lineups more likely to regress larger than the younger leafs? More likely for injuries and also if division weaker going to gain more points on weaker opponents.

The only thing I see giving the Leafs a good chance is the goaltending. We finally have a tandem that will push one another and play their hearts out for starts. Besides, getting 3rd or 4th in a tough division (Atlantic) is something we shouldn't be ashamed of. I also love the depth more than last season

Pens fan here and I disagree. I feel TOR improved alot. I can see them beating out BOS for third solely because if BOS cant figure out the 2C quick, Hall and other depth contributors might struggle. Then on the other hand, Hall just turns into a beast with a nobody 2C lol. Gonna be a close race though

Metro isn't strong at all. Teams there have got worse this offseason rather than better. The Penguins are worse and aging, the Caps are worse and aging, the Flyers and Hurricanes have both gone crazy. There's basically only 1 real threat left in the Metro with the Islanders then 5 or so teams following them which wouldn't be in the top 4 in the Atlantic anyway. If anything, theres a good shot we see 5 Atlantic teams make the playoffs this season.
