    That's a fun prediction, and if it weren't for the weird travel/conference thing I think they have a good enough team to probably pull off the 8th spot in the East. Problem is they are going to have a brutal travel schedule playing in the Southeast despite home being Winnipeg, and it's going to wear them down really fast.

    2. Calgary wins the west
    3. Columbus wins the Central division, and Nashville finishes last in the central (**** I hope I'm wrong)

    5. Nobody beats 100 pts
    6. Shea Weber gets traded
    7. Malkin comes back, and is back on the shelf before November 16th
    8. Varlamov stays healthy and posts 35 wins for Colorado
    9. Lecavalier outpoints Stamkos
    10. Jagr will not break 50 pts, and a lot of people will be pissed because they drafted him in top 3 rounds of their draft

    You spelled "losers" wrong. Please use proper grammar when insulting the Leafs in the future.
