Seattle. They even didn't had a team in 2020- 2021.

Kings want to add 2 top 6 forwards so I agree on them. Also I see Petersen becoming a legitimate number 1 goalie.
Ottawa looked really good the last couple months but it depends if they’re able to add a couple more pieces.
Rangers will be a powerhouse. Quinn was a horrible coach and Gallant is a beauty. Also add in Nils Lundkvist and another year for Kakko, Lafreniere and Kravtsov as well as Shestyorokin.
I think Minnesota will add a solid centre and Matt Boldy is going to be incredible.

Good calls all but I think Ottawa should get the nod because they probably have the most cap space and a plethora of draft picks to reel in some significant pieces from other clubs who cannot afford them. Add that to a pretty delicious looking young group and they should be really solid if they are well coached and get some goaltending
Sabres can’t get worse, right?
Oh wait, they can go from #31 to #32…darn.

Leafs gunna take the league by storm!
Put the league on notice, a very light breeze is in the forecast.

Devils will be a powerhouse. Ruff is a beauty. Also add in Kevin Bahl and posibibly Dawson Mercer and another year for Hughes, Hischier, and Ty Smith as well as Blackwood.

If Anaheim adds Eichel and a few other smaller fwd pieces, they will be contending

Stars getting their number 1 goalie and center back could help, as well as a healthy Hintz
Also if the rumors are true surrounding Blake Coleman coming home, that could be a nice addition. Even more so if he takes Cogliano's place

Just based on actual results:
Minnesota: losing game 7 against VGK in a playoffs they were not *supposed* to be in is actually great result.
Habs: winning a game against VGK in the goddamn conference finals is a proof that they have done something right.

Depending on what kind of contract Heiskanen signs (bridge vs long-term), Dallas should be in pretty good shape to load up next year. Getting Seguin, Radulov and Bishop back (and Hintz actually healthy) will be massive.

I could see Ottawa contending for a playoff spot next year.

Yes and only a fool would believe given the expansion draft options open to Seattle that Buffalo would have any shot at being better than the new Kraken.
Way too early to even discuss this,. the playoffs are not even over and no off season shenanigan have begun yet and we have a lot this off season with expansion draft, amateur draft, trades, free agency, etc.
