His top five is the same as mine, except in a different order.

The Best Of BC
HankthaTank - Squirrels, they hate to be thrown. / Why is the magical unicorn named Brian... Jedi - I just downloaded the "kids" book, "Go the F--k to Sleep" as narrated by Samuel L. Jackson on my kindle. I am now ready to be a daddy. / *Checks Router* No, I'm positive I didn't hit the "Wings Defense Sucks" button. Electrophile - I'm just glad the Wings were able to win despite the Curse of Brian. ACallToArms - I think Trey needs to put something about payroll tax and deferred income in his sig... Edicius - I'd rather [have] a soundbite of me saying "I like (man sausage)" rather than "I like Crosby".

"my rankings" ... some of them may have been due to bias... lol
Red Wings
Canucks
Capitals
Kings
Devils
Sharks
Bruins
Sabres
Penguins
Flyers
Avalanche
Flames
Hurricanes
Rangers
Predators
Lightning
Canadiens
Blackhawks
Coyotes
Blues
Senators
Ducks
Stars
Wild
Maple Leafs
Blue Jackets
Oilers
Thrashers
Islanders
Panthers

actually, it might be a "tad" more realistic if I have the Preds and the Hawks switched... 18 for 15... I forgot how much the Preds lost this offseason (mainly Hamhuis, and Ellis)

18. Blackhawks

No, that's not at all biased.

I'd say:

True contenders:
Wings
Vancouver
Washington
San Jose
Chicago
Pittsburgh

Close, could surprise and/or make a deadline move:
New Jersey
LA
Philly

Dark horses, mostly on account of goaltending:
Boston
Nashville
Buffalo

And after that just pick names out of a hat because none of them have much hope of winning anything.

Thanks for taking th time to post this.

I'd switch the hawks and Flames for starters. The Flames just signed Brenden Morrison for $750k to fill holes until people start getting healthy...already. And they have no chemistry on their first line. The Hawks aren't going to be that bad. As much as LGW dislikes Crosby, I'd think you'd know by now never to underestimate that little s***. I'd have them higher, too.
