    2. Ottawa squeezes into the playoffs
    3. St Louis Blues, led by rookie Jake Allen, win the Stanley Cup
    4. Taylor Hall finishes top 5 in scoring along with Crosby, Giroux, Seguin and Stamkos

    Nice predictions! ... Here's mine :

    1- Colorado + Detroit misses playoff
    2- Crosby score 50+ goals 140+ points
    3- Ovechkin scores less than 25 goals
    4- Claude Julien get fired
    5- Stasny win the Conn Smyth
    12 teams keeper league (keep 6 + 1 rookie) H2H points only

    Rookie = less than 23 years old and never reached 60pts for a forward / 40 pts for a D

    Start : C RW LW S D D G
    Points are : A/G = 1 pt W = 2 pts SO = 1pt

    C - Seguin Giroux Stepan
    LW - Huberdeau (R) Parise Tlusty
    RW - Eberle Hornqwist Hemsky Scheifele
    D - Schultz Gardiner Goligoski Brodie Sekera Zidlicky
    G - Fleury Crawford Raanta Greiss

    Whoever said, 'It's not whether you win or lose that counts,' probably lost.

    1- We discover that Zdeno Chara is indeed, an ogre wearing hockey equipment.
    2- The Oilers fire Dallas Eakins and hire a certified baby-sitter.
    3- Max Pacioretty regenerates an entire limb on the bench.
    4- No player on the Kings squad scores 10 goals during the season, yet they still manage to win the Cup.
    5- MSL asks for a trade after Alain Vigneault forgets to invite him to the pottery team-bonding activity.

    OK... let's try something more realistic.
    1- Jake Allen hits 35 wins, after stealing the #1 job early in the season.
    2- Kucherov surpasses Drouin on the TB chart, gets all the offensive minutes and reaches 65 points.
    3- Jaromir Jagr plays another 82 games season.
    4- Joe Pavelski cements himself as SJ's leader, remains in the top 10 scoring list.
    5- Ottawa finishes dead last in the East, except for Karlsson, nobody hits 50 points.

    Love #1.

    Infact...all are pretty bold... But Neal scoring 50 goals. Seems way to far fetched. I expect 50 points to be his target. But hey... Kudos if he get close.

    I have to give this some thought.

    i think it's just bold enough. as funny as it is, i would be a happy NHL fan if these came true. I especially like the Gio finishing 3rd for Norris. Just a fan of the underrated/undervalued guys!
