So, in an Oilers fan, was really impressed with the outcome of last season, a very good feeling they will make it even farther this up coming season, new players, different chemistry, it's gonna be a good season

Post what your favourite team is and where you think they will finish in the playoffs or if you think they will even make it

Here are my predictions:
Top team in each conference
Atlantic- Senators
Metropolitan- Penguins
Central- Predators
Pacific- Oilers

Conference finalists:
Eastern- Penguins Vs Rangers
Western- Predators Vs Oilers

Stanley cup finals : Oilers Vs Rangers

Sharks; probably and most likely will makes the playoffs, tough to call the rest

Atlantic: Tough to say, probably Tampa or Toronto
Metro: Washington
Central: Chicago
Pacific: Calgary

ECF: Tampa/Washington
WCF: Calgary/Chicago

Finals: Washington vs Chicago

I could see that as a final if Washington can make it past the first or second round

After the shitshow of last season, with the whole Ovechkin problem, I wouldn't doubt if they made it this year even though they lost Schmidt, Alzner, and Williams. It seems that's how teams like the Caps work. They'll surprise you when it's least expected. Tampa is my wildcard though.

I agree I think the caps could come with a bang this year, a lot of teams surprised me last year, with the expansion and stuff now, I can't wait to see what all happens

Yeah, expansions are always better imo. Makes teams more interesting. Vegas doesn't look half bad either with Fleury, Neal, etc.

i don't see them advancing all the way. its like the caps being at the top of the metro but not making it to the eastern finals 2 years straight. i don't think they're equipped enough to make that far of a run yet

Maybe, but I'd say McDavid with a decent supporting cast can pretty much do anything.
