Where do the Panthers finish in the Atlantic next season

[Sticksandsun]

I see on the mainboards some people think Florida (2 great regular seasons in a row) are going to regress. I do not agree, Florida was the best team in the league before adding Giroux, losing 1 top 9 player (Mason Marchment) won't change that. Vegas also has Florida in the top 5 for the regular season and 4th highest CUp odds, so I know it's not just me being a fan. Let's vote on it

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's just Habs fans trying to delude themselves into having 2 lotto picks at Bedard

Lol

40% of 2nd
40% of 3rd
20% of Wildcard

So I went with 3rd.

Is the first round pick Habs got unprotected? Damn, didn't know that. That's interesting if so.

Obviously odds of Panthers being in the running for Bedard are quite low, but never impossible.

Well so far only 2 people have voted them out of the playoffs. I think where they finish, most likely in the playoffs, will depend on which Bobrovsky shows up for the season.

 

[CatchyTune]

Probably 3rd. I think all top 3 Atlantic teams got worse this offseason. I still think Tampa/Florida/Toronto will be the top 3 in some order.

 

[Kerberos]

1st or 2nd. Should come down to the wire between them and Tampa.

 

[leafsfan5]

1.) Toronto
2.) Florida
3.) Tampa

Is how I see it playing out so I voted 2nd

Miss the playoffs

 

[HockeyVirus]

Miss playoffs. Last year was a fluke

 

[Crow]

At least 3rd. Maybe 2nd

 

[Sticksandsun]

Miss playoffs. Last year was a fluke

And the year before when they had 110 point pace?

 

[Panthaz89]

Probably 1st they are too talented to not be a juggernaut in the regular season at least and they are better than Toronto for sure.

 

[TheImpatientPanther]

And the year before when they had 110 point pace?

Just another Toronto fan who's jealous of Florida's recent success

I'd say both the Leafs and Panthers deserve the tag of COVID wonders and flukes until proven otherwise. Since the Leafs have an extensive past record of being a playoff bubble team and all-around non-achiever prior to the pandemic outbreak, while the Panthers are still largely unknown and untested outside the COVID era, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and state they'll hang with Tampa as a top 2 team next season.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

2nd behind Ottawa

 

[The Red Line]

They got worse but the other top teams got worser. 1st.
