This isn't intended to be an exhaustive list of moves, I'm going mostly from memory here.
Their finishes last year:
W | L | OTL | Pts | G/D | |
VAN | 51 | 22 | 9 | 111 | +51 |
CGY | 37 | 29 | 16 | 90 | -24 |
COL | 41 | 35 | 6 | 88 | -12 |
MIN | 35 | 36 | 11 | 81 | -49 |
EDM | 32 | 40 | 10 | 74 | -27 |
I, personally, like G/D more than points so I'd have ranked that division VAN, COL, CGY, EDM, MIN last year.
BIG PERSONNEL MOVES:
IN | OUT | |
VAN | Garrison | Luongo? |
CGY | Wideman Hudler | Jokinen |
COL | Parenteau | |
MIN | Suter Parise | |
EDM | Yakupov Schultz |
So what do you guys think? I think Vancouver walks with this division again and I'd guess that's consensus so let's vote on who comes in second place in the Northwest.
Vancouver likely wins the NW with their eyes closed. Who comes in second place?
Colorado Avalanche | 70 |
Calgary Flames | 12 |
Edmonton Oilers | 44 |
Minnesota Wild | 145 |
