For Edmonton, with their off-season moves we can clearly see they are hitting the rebuild button by trading away most of their top players and looking to acquire draft capital for future seasons to come. We saw this in the early S60's with Edmonton and it looks like HFFO is looking to run it back again with that strategy. For Winnipeg, I believe they're still looking to be competitive for a few more seasons. On the Eastern side of things, it has been PHI and NEW in the East finals since S72 and that trend will probably continue for a few more seasons (BAP and HAM are going to be very good soon). LAP and TEX look to be the powerhouses in the West with WPG about to begin suffering with regression. On a more personal note, here in Texas we have a brand new 1C along with a 2k TPE defender, so I feel like we're right in the middle of our prime for multiple cup runs.

The Panthers decided they did not want to play more than four games, so they swept the New England Wolfpack, which was a pretty big shock to most of us. The only thing I can think of that the Wolfpack could have done differently is switch up their strategy after losing the first two games. Los Angeles seemed like they just wanted it more; they came in and dominated New England in every way possible. Los Angeles goalie just decided to shut them down after game one. You would think with the amount of high-octane offense that New England has, they would've at least put up somewhat of a fight... big disappointment for their fans.
