CRYRTAL BALL: TOP 10 in 2015-16

[Daddy]

1. where else would I put my team! (16-12 6th in division)
2. Stacked top to bottom (18-10 3rd in the division)
3. a few minor tweeks and theyre even scarier (26-2 2nd in FNHL)
4. If he wants it he's top 4 (15-13 5th in division)
5. might lose a little more luster (21-6-1 2nd in division)
6. able to rollout MAF or Schneider (21-6-1 1st in division)
7. builds winners (7-21 )
8. showed some big potential this yr (11-17 see above)
9. strong core and needs some fine tuning (20-8 suck it papps)
10. might not be able to resign key pending UFAs (Undefeated still 28-0)

"of course this list will evolve this summer as trades and free agency changes the composition of rosters."

Its a long season boys but...
Pittsburgh Penguins  20-8-0
Chicago Blackhawks   20-8-0
Montreal Canadiens  19-9-0
Winnipeg Jets  18-10-0
Anaheim Ducks  18-10-0

Hawks are 24-8 and 1st in the Central Division.

10. Devan Dubnyk express. Good for another round trip!
9. Andersen, Ramo, Gibson
8. Too active and busy to not crack to Top 10 in yr 2
7. Jonathan builds winners but might lack depth
6. Core is intact
5. I usually make the Top 6
4. Pattern of cracking Top 4 his 2nd yr in leagues
3. Always a Top 3 threat!
2. Core stays intact
1. Almost a safe bet BUT huge extension & cap issues ahead!

PPG mightve had the best prediction last off-season!

[Burkes Boys]

4. If he wants it he's top 4

Winter and e40 built an outstanding core.
I simply took the franchise to the next level!!!

I think the team that wins the Hardluck Award in 2015-16 is

Hurricanes lost both starting goalies for long periods. Mike Smith and Bob sunk that franchise. Instead of a Top 10 finish, Carolina wrapped up the season as a Bottom 10 team.. Tough break.

Nashville had 4 capable goalies in 2015-16. That is hard to beat. Burke brought balance to the skaters up front. Well done!

NO ONE CALLED THE PITTSBURGH PENGUINS A TOP 10 TEAM BEFORE THE SEASON STARTED.
