Description
Yes! The nhl is actually coming back today! It's hard to believe. For the last 10 months we've all been couped up in our homes. Covid has changed everything, and the nhl is no exception. It's going to be interesting just how it works out. I hope Covid doesn't shut it down. I just thought I'd do one last standings prediction before the season starts again. Hope you all like it. No real hot takes, a very conservative prediction.

reasonable for the most part. I'd say the top 3 in any division will be some sort of combination of each you have. But again, do not underestimate the Canucks, Blue Jackets, or Islanders.

No, I should have mentioned, I would not be suprised to see any team outside of ANA, LAK, OTT, CHI, DET, NJD make the playoffs.

This was not terrible after 3 months, but yikes some of these are very bad in hindsight.

Mostly Flordia and new York. Pittsburg and Winnipeg too.

I could not have been more wrong about the Blue Jackets and Canucks. Wow! But none of us expected the flyers to be so bad. Nor the panthers so good.

Yup, the canucks and blue jackets have been very bad. But you nailed the isles part at least.

Also, Buffalo should have been there instead of Chicago here.

For the Canadian division, the predictions from The Athletic, Sportsnet, NBC and ESPN were as follows:

1, 1, 1, 1 -- Toronto
3, 2, 3, 4 -- Calgary
4, 5, 2, 2 -- Edmonton
5, 3, 4, 3 -- Vancouver
2, 4, 5, 6 -- Montreal
6, 6, 6, 5 -- Winnipeg
7, 7, 7, 7 -- Ottawa

At this point in the season, they all predicted Toronto and Ottawa correctly and all missed on Winnipeg and Calgary (and Vancouver likely). The Athletic picked 3 of the playoff teams, everyone else predicted 2 of the 4 playoff teams.

Well, that's nice that my predictions were better than The Athletic, Sportnet, NBC and ESPN for the North division. In fact, all I got wrong so far was Winnipeg and Calgary.

Well done. Everyone got Winnipeg and Calgary wrong so you're not alone.
