Although obviously I was way off on the Sabres/Habs thing!

2. With the huge lift of playing in a Canadian NHL market for the first time, and with the rabid fanbase firmly behind the team despite a losing season, Blake Wheeler and Bryan Little each breakout with 60+ points each. PRETTY CLOSE TO A HIT
3. Henrik Lundqvist wins the Vezina and breaks the 40-win barrier for the first time. LOOKING GOOD
4. Jordan Eberle scores 35 goals. LOOKING GOOD DESPITE INJURY
5. Patrice Bergeron wins the Selke. LOOKING VERY GOOD
6. Steve Mason bounces back with 30+ wins, and posts sub-2.5 GAA and better than 0.915 save percentage. MISS
7. One of Sheldon Souray, David Perron or Peter Mueller win the Masterton Trophy, and Ryan Callahan wins the Messier Leadership Award. LOOKING GOOD ALL AROUND
8. Nino Niederreiter wins the Calder with a 30-goal season. MISS
9. Jeff Skinner and Derek Stepan improve on their point totals in their sophomore years. HIT FOR STEPAN, MISS FOR SKINNER ONLY DUE TO INJURY
10. Josh Gorges leads the league in blocked shots. DEAD ON HIT
And, bonus forecast, an Eastern team will win the Cup again, but it won't be the Bruins. WE SHALL SEE!
