Who do you think will win the Central Division (in the playoffs)?

[bobholly39]

Central division has been a 3 horse race this season, with all of Tampa, Carolina and Florida dominating the division. Despite both Carolina and Florida looking great, we all know Tampa's recent history. Historic season 2 years ago, dominating cup win last year, and as good as they've been this season, they get to add Kucherov come playoffs as an added bonus. They did completely choke 2 years ago though, so despite being so solid on paper, they definitely are beatable.

The 4th playoff spot seems wide open in this division. I think only Detroit is truly out, and maybe Columbus. So any of Nashville, Chicago, Dallas or maybe even Columbus will qualify. Dallas did just go to the cup finals last year, so they could have a shot again if they make the playoffs.

So who do you predict will win out the division in the playoffs, to make it to the final 4?

Tampa Bay is extremely good but I'm feeling Carolina to make it through.

Tampa or Carolina. I would have given Florida a solid shot if they had bladder.

Voted Tampa. A little bit reverse psychology and a little bit I think the Canes are a year away.

Nashville now has 10 players on IR including Forsberg, Ellis, Duchene and Tolvanen. We won’t make the playoffs
