Actually, I'm going to predict right now that the Monsters have a monster year! They have a killer roster and depending whether the Jackets Savage it all season or not they will be a darn good team!
Kevin Stenlund should be the #1 center and he's going to be entertaining! I believe though the Jackets will call him up either quickly or very often to cover injuries.
I'm expecting the Jets to be a serious contender also. Not sure Eric Karlson in SJ is enough to propel them to the finals. Vegas is a question mark but I too see them dropping off a bit. Toronto goaltending is questionable and could make it but I'll predict...
Winnepeg v Tampa Bay in the cup finals!
Doh!!! Meant to quote you Punch! Too many body checks over the years!
