The Metro might be the hardest division to predict this year outside of CAR. On paper the Isles should absolutely be competing for playoff spot, but my guess is they finish 5th or 6th. The Devils are really going to throw a wrench into the whole thing.

I won't be surprised to see teams like the Caps, Pens or Rangers to miss by a little.

Definitely not a lock but still could. Way too many teams in the central tried to improve their rosters this summer to compete

no

Other than Carolina who’s a lock, anyone could make the playoffs in the metro this year

Kadri isn’t signing that contract. Maybe 1 year at $7.5mm

No

At the end of the day this entire season is dependent on the isles being better on d and Sorokin being Sorokin. I think based on that they should be a lock because they were good enough to make it last year but Lou signed Greene and Chara to patrol the blue line.

Probably, but it isn’t winning the cup and the team will only get worse over the years unless there is an injection of youth

he signed less than this

He signed for 7 years $49mm. May want to check your math

aav lmao what
