As this was seen as kind of a rebuilding year, Edmonton is currently under 500 but is still going to make the playoffs. After making the conference finals last season, we knew we were going to drop a bit with 5 rookies coming up and losing Gabe. Thankfully we’re safe for a playoff spot but its looking like we’re either going to face Chicago or Texas and neither of those matchups look very good for us unfortunately. Thankfully we only project to get better from this season on so we should be in good shape for a long time. In terms of trades, we aren’t really looking at anything that would improve the team since we know it’s a down year, but with the extra cap space we have we would be willing to take a contract on with retention in order to get some more draft capital. For the league as a whole, its looking like another HAM/BUF/CHI/TEX season, even with how good BAP has been I would be shocked if one of those 4 didn’t win the cup this season.
