Alright, 1 post, all opinions are wrong, everyone knows the rules.

> Luke - Edmonton will miss the playoffs

False. They're farther along on TPE totals than a lot of other teams, so they should be fine. TPE will be more important than ever now that more than 4 stats need to be upgraded, and they should be alright. NEXT!

> bbjygm - Hamilton will do well and everybody will be very calm and cool about it when they do

False, on both accounts. Hamilton has the TPE, sure, but they're gonna have more trouble getting to the playoffs, if they even make it, which they won't. Even then, everyone (including myself), will shit on them, because they got defeated by Minnesota with a 700 TPE goalie in net. NEXT!

> Y-man - New England will still miss the playoffs

False. Prety much their entire team is above 1k TPE, and barring any bullshit from Simon T (he still graces us despite shitting on his engine), they should make the playoffs given good builds and line strats.

> Katth - Toronto will not finish last in the league

False. Even with the low TPE roster, they still have to compete with other teams for bottom of the barrel, including Texas and Tampa Bay. NEXT!

> Fordyford - Hamilton will finish dead last in the league

False. They will finish 2nd to last. NEXT!

> Luke - Toronto will win fewer than 7 games

False. Look, I get it: everyone saw the initial sims, and it doesn't look good. HOWEVER, they'll perform better than that since their players got a bit more TPE this offseason. I say 8 wins minimum.

> Donini - Winnipeg will make the playoffs

False. Gary Grease is on his last legs, and the rest of the team is a few years away from competing with the ammount of TPE most of their guys have. NEXT!

> The Buffalo Stampede will finish just outside the playoffs, at 5th place in the East

False. They'll be up there since they got a bunch of good guys on the roster with more than 1k TPE. They're probably one of the most prepared teams for this transition.

> hotdog - Aleister Cain will finally take home an award (it's not bold because he's got a ton of TPE but it is bold cuz we all know he stink)

False. Aleister Cain is a perenial choker and he's never taking home anything. His performance in S46 is more than enough proof. NEXT!

> Puolivalmiste - TEX goalie White Goodman will be Rookie of the Year

False. Any of Tampa's 3 rookies will take it. No explanation required. NEXT!

> JayWhy - The Chicago Syndicate are going to be top 3 in the league in both goals for and goals against

False. Cameron Carter II will be blocking shots left and right and will win the Dar again because fuck you. Because he's blocking all the shots, he's not scoring goals, and the Syndicate will fall down the rankings of GF. NEXT!

> Mike Izzy - In their 19th seasons, one of either Robert Phelps or Mike Izzy will win one of the awards for the S53 season.

False. Both are old as hell and washed up, Phelps especially. NE- oh that's it.
