NHL starts back up tomorrow, who ya got in 2021?

I have the realigned divisions below for a refresher. My picks:

NORTH: Toronto (darkhorse Habs)
WEST: Colorado (VGK very good if all healthy, though)
CENTRAL: Tampa (darkhorse Carolina)
EAST: Philly (best division overall IMO)
CUP: Colorado, though VGK are right there. But if Kucherov is back and healthy for the playoffs, Tampa is maybe the favorite again.

HART/MVP: Nathan MacKinnon
ART ROSS/top scorer: McDavid, MY GUY Auston Matthews for goals
VEZINA/goalie: Lehner (darkhorse: Markstrom)
NORRIS/defenseman: Hedman (darkhorse: Heiskanen)
CALDER/rookie: Tim Stuetzle, maybe Kaprizov
PATRICE BERGERON AWARD (most likely to break my heart and eliminate the Leafs early in the playoffs): Habs would be the most fitting, feels like it will be someone else like Vancouver though

The @NHLPA and @NHL have announced an agreement to play a 2020-21 regular-season schedule of 56 games beginning on Wednesday, Jan. 13, 2021. https://t.co/2on0oStnMd pic.twitter.com/aggYeVMjfj

I like St Louis but after losing Pietrangelo I don’t think they can get through

I don't know what to expect from them. They finally were looking really good

I don't know. We pretty much own Vegas but Colorado is still our worst

Did own Vegas until the last three games. And if Binnington drops off like he did in the playoffs, could be rough.

Pretty much sums up Blues. Suck unless they have a world class goalie, which

Pietrqngelo was the key to their success. Huge loss.

and he not only left, but went to a (this season) division rival. Krug is good

Martin Van Nostrand

Most fans disagree. He wasn't a great defender and allows the puck to jump his

Ash

Nope, there is a reason St. Louis let him go. It wasn't because he was the key

I like the Leafs but I think they are going to be a train wreck this yr....

Agree on Calgary in the North

Carolina. They've had a young team that now has two years under their belts

While I love the divisional alignments, I really hate the playoff setup.

I think that’s mostly to mitigate the effects of a closed Canadian border. No

I love the Bruins hate... or negligent oversight.

Revolution

1/12/21 12:54pm

I would reluctantly pick the Bruins in the North (and maybe the Central if Pasta

Can you quickly put together a list of teams that won 100+ games last season?

Bruins hate? Or fans of Boston teams hate?

Ash

I’m an Avs fan and think we get to the finals

I had you guys penciled in but you let Dallas walk all over you. Did not see

Ash

1/12/21 5:39pm

The Avs are the only team that scares me as a VGK fan. And we have to play you 8 times before the playoffs. Ugh.
