On Dragon Fly's list: The Rangers should be way way way higher than that. I predict them to make 5th maybe. Washington is exactly where it should be though, Perfect Stu, all they gotta do is beat out the Hurricanes to get in third, it's a pretty likely possibility. I think Carolina, Tampa Bay, and Boston will be lower down, with Montreal and/or Pittsburgh making the cut instead of one of one/two of those three.
As for Null's list: Rangers are way too low there also. Tampa Bay, Florida, Carolina, or Washington will be in the third place spot (or 1st or 2nd place...) so your list is a little flawed in that sense, and I don't think Boston or New Jersey will do that well either.
