Quick 2010-11 Projections

Northeast Division Finish:

1. Boston Bruins Call it home cookin’, optimistic, whatever what-have-you, but we honestly believe Horton will come into his own and add a little sizzle to last year’s fairly stagnant offensive scheme, not to mention continued dominance on the defensive end.
2. Buffalo Sabres The Bruins boast arguably the best goaltending tandem in the NHL, but the Sabres still have G Ryan Miller, best in the league until proven otherwise, which will keep them competitive until season’s end.
3. Ottawa Senators – Undoubtedly the most proven offensive squad in the division, unmatched in terms of top to bottom firepower, the Sens will certainly make the Northeast a 3 team race.
4. Toronto Maple Leaves Toronto has some nice pieces, but overall the Leafs can’t compete with the division’s top 3 teams over the course of a full season.
5. Montreal Canadiens Cary Price is nice in net, but letting G Jaroslav Halak slip away to the St. Louis Blues may be a move the Habs live to regret.
