I will speak for myself and state that Chicago Blackhawks fully expect to be in the Final Four in 2019. Anything less would be a failure on our part.

EAST
Carolina, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Montreal.

WEST
Colorado, Edmonton, Chicago, Nashville.

These are my picks at this time for Conference Semi-Finals.

- DD

I agree with Double D.

For teams battling for worst record I’ll go Ducks, Sabers, Wild, Caps. Some have pipeline goalies coming and others just organizational depth pieces in net that are handcuffing 19’.

I fully expect Colorado to hand Chicago another disappointing year.... because I’ve got too mister!

Caps won 51 games last year and those other 3 combined won 35. Nobody left the Caps. We're stacked in the skaters department. Goalie or not, we won't be winning only 15 games next year.

I'll post some detailed predictions once the transaction freeze hits. Teams are still rounding out their rosters.

caps almost upset the mighty Hurricanes last year in the first round. I doubt they finish near the bottom.

Western
Pacific
1. Vegas - has depth at all positions and some goaltending that could really surprise with Grubauer

2. San Jose - built and has Condon who might steal starts super active new owner continuously making improvenents

3. LA - Quick, Doughty, Hedman, O'Reilly, McDavid say the Kings are playoff bound again this year.

Golden Knights will have to make more adjustments to lock up a playoff spot in the preseason. But thanks for the vote of confidence brother.

    Today at 02:40:07 PM
  • Daddy: Also... Ive got a nice private island full of beautiful women to sell you. Pay me upfront and i will send you its coordinates. We call it the Virgin Daddy Islands. $5k reserves it for your future.
    Today at 02:41:59 PM
  • dbreer23: Take two to tango, though. Most owners with adequate or surplus SP aren't interested in prospects as they're trying to win now.
    Today at 02:42:54 PM
  • Daddy: Agreed. But most does not equal all.
    Today at 02:45:09 PM
  • Braves155: My issue in LIVE currently is having Strider/Alcantara/Giolito all on the long shelf, so I am more retooling than rebuilding
    Today at 02:46:48 PM
  • Daddy: Also agreed. Top quality pitching probably means not much depth. A few injuries can challenge you. Pitching other than top end pitching has been devalued in fantasy. Everyone wants the stud.
    Today at 02:49:24 PM
  • Braves155: But I myself could use some time on a nudie island with some hot women
    Today at 02:49:45 PM
  • Daddy: I here to tell you that ALL major league pitching is good pitching. A great hitter beats a terrible pitcher just 3 out of 10 times. Which means the worst pitchers > the greatest hitters.
    Today at 02:50:33 PM
  • STLBlues91: Ill be around the rest of the day for any talks
    Today at 03:25:59 PM
  • Brent: Greg Maddux had the best outlook.  He viewed himself as tye dealer/house and you had to beat him.  Just like in the casino, the house nearly always wins.
    Today at 04:33:51 PM
  • Brent: He had that view b/c of his father who was a blackjack dealer in Vegas.
    Today at 04:35:28 PM
  • Daddy: Yes @Brent!! That is it exactly. Pitching is the house & it always wins in the end.
    Today at 05:15:18 PM
  • Daddy: There shouldn't be many innings available in FA in dynasty fantasy leagues IMO. Thats guaranteed money! To hell with High A ball.
    Today at 05:21:23 PM
  • Daddy: Until someone starts a minor league baseball fantasy game or option. Maybe we can petition fantrax? I just dont think they will care for that.
    Today at 05:23:07 PM
  • Daddy: Neither should we (so much). Every league i see is MLB.

  • Braves155: The problem with the minors is not the system as a whole, it is some Farm Systems are more 'elite' at being able to produce talent than others. If you look across MLB teams you can pretty easily tell the great systems from the weaker systems and talent development
    Today at 05:57:14 PM
  • Braves155: With regard to pitching in the Minors...there is  method to the madness. It is all about what you make of it tho. I agree that it can seem certain type arms in the minors are a dime a dozen
    Today at 06:02:39 PM
  • Daddy: Mr Braves you are my guy. There isnt anything wrong with minor league studs or flops. I get it in REAL baseball.
    Today at 06:20:28 PM
  • Daddy: This is fantasy baseball. We dont generate revenue selling prospects and merchandising. Our top farms dont get a write up in Sports Illustrated.
    Today at 06:22:29 PM
  • Daddy: Load up on MLB guys, then near MLB guys, and only then is the quality of your prospects matter. Ya dig ;)
    Today at 06:24:36 PM
  • Brent: I over value minors to a fault, but I am softening on that stance.
