Bold predictions

[Moses]

The non-Tavares Islanders make the playoffs, the Leafs do not.

[Godin]

you sir just made my day!!! LOL

Ha ha. Mine too.

-Tom Wilson scores 50+ points and suddenly everyone stops saying his contract is the worst ever. Everyone still hates him except his fantasy owners in multi-cat leagues, who refuse to trade him straight up for virtually any other player except maybe Trocheck or Benn. Maybe.

-Marchand doesn't get suspended for even a single game.

-An NHL all-star comes out of the closet publicly, and everybody is okay with it.

-The Habs make a trade that isn't horrible.

-The Sens don't finish in last place.

Is "bold" the right word for these predictions?

[Dennis]

Inconceivable perhaps?

[ACC90]

Tolvanen scores 30 goals ... in the KHL
McKinnon gets fewer than 70 points
Keller gets 80+ points
Point gets 80+ points
Hullebuyck struggles and falls out of top tier goaltenders by end of season

Plausible projections!

Haha I'd say that these are the very definition of bold my friend. For the record, I would like to see each and every one of these happen.

Bold, but plausible -- Ott continues the tire-fire.... BUT

The other owners bind together and pressure Bettman to force Melnyk to sell

[Spleentastic]

I find only a few of these to be truly bold predictions. Let's be BOLD!

-Jack Eichel wins the Art Ross
-Mike Matheson leads the Panthers D in scoring
-Robin Lehner is a Vezina finalist
-The Detroit Red Wings make the playoffs and upset a good team in the first round. Nobody can make any sense of this.
-The Columbus Blue Jackets are a mess for the first two months. Panarin confirms he will not re-sign and is traded. It is revealed that Bobrovsky is being quietly shopped because the team doesn't think it can re-sign him either, and he is traded after Christmas. They can't right the ship for some reason and challenge Ottawa for last in the East.

Florida wins the Atlantic.
Arizona claims a wildcard spot (someone mentioned it above but wanted to second it).
Oilers make the cup finals.

Habs make the playoffs. I do not say this as a Hans fan in blind hope. I say this as a Habs fan predicting the worst. Habs making the playoffs would be disastrous, as it would cement Bergevin as a GM genius and buy him several more years. Habs need to tank this year for Bergevin to fired... and even then, I am not sure he would be.

[Seeds of Grapes]

Posted twice... move along... nothing to see here

[Canucks_fan18]

Ahh I will go off the Habs with a couple and there bold but I think doable.

Carey Price is a Vezina Candidate
Jonathan Drouin switching back to winger re invigorates him and he finally busts out for over 70+ points.

[BreadManPanarin]

I will soil myself and then eat my underwear if Jonathan Drouin scores 70 plus points this year.

said 'BOLD' Predictions, not 'pee your bed wet-dream' predictions.

You would have said the same thing last year if I had posted "Vegas goes to the Cup." However, just so we are on the same page, the worst thing for me as a Habs fan is the Habs doing well. Bergevin must go.
