A quick view of the upcoming s55 season

Anaheim Outlaws- The Outlaws will look to make it back to the finals this season after a disappointing loss to Carolina in game 5. The outlaws will likely rely on solid goaltending and strong leadership from veterans Ethan Price and Emilia Bergman and sophmore Ryu Jones.

Anchorage Armada – The armada had a tough season finishing with a 22-23-5 record but exceeded expectations in the playoffs, forcing a game 7 against a tough Kelowna team. A lot of the old guard is coming back this season led by their star center Santtu Rasanen. However, they will need to produce outside of the top line if they want to make a deep playoff run this season.

Carolina Kraken – The defending champs look for the repeat this season as Blunt Man takes the reins as the Krakens’s likely starting goaltender. Carolina will be hard to score on, as they are able to field three solid defensive pairings they can roll throughout the game.

Colorado Raptors – After a first round exit the raptors look to respond with a deep playoff run this season. Expect a breakout season from Lord Raiden who will likely see much more icetime with the departure of fellow center Simothy Drunkenbird. No doubt this will lead to much more offensive production from what we saw last season.

Detroit Falcons - The falcons took the top seeded Beserkers to a game 7 but couldn’t advance to the second round of the playoffs this season. However, their regular season play left a lot to be desired as they finished with a 22-25-3 record. They will look to get above .500 and help their playoff seed this season to try for a deep playoff run.

Kelowna Knights – The knights had a great regular season led by a high scoring forward line and stingy goaltending. With Kavanaugh being called up to the SHL backup Peter Ramsey will likely take the helm as the Knights’ net minder and will have some very big shoes to fill.

Maine Timber- After a tough season the Timber look to rebound after finishing at the bottom of a tough eastern conference last season. The Timber have a young team with a lot of potential and with the leadership of their veteran d-pair Kalashnikov and Sondergard are poised to make serious comeback.

Nevada Battleborn- Fresh out of the expansion draft the battleborn are looking to make a name for of themselves in their first season. It may be a couple seasons before we see them start to make deep playoff runs but they have the potential to make a large impact in the future.

Newfoundland Berserkers – The Presidents trophy winners came up short in the postseason, losing to Carolina in the second round. A large majority of that team has returned leaving the Berserkers with a lot of forward depth, especially at the center position. Expect them to make another deep playoff run this season.

Quebec City Citadelles- The second expansion team also shows a lot of promise. The team is full of young talent and will likely be an offensive powerhouse in a season or two. For now much of the offensive weight will fall onto Alexander Roach’s shoulders as he is poised to improve his already impressive point totals from last season.

St. Louis Scarecrows - The Scarecrows had a tough first round exit in last seasons’ playoffs but have a number of promising players entering their sophomore seasons looking to step into larger roles. Led by two strong defensive pairings, and their two developing netminders, the scarecrows have potential to show significant improvement on defense.

Vancouver Whalers – The Whalers had a tough season finishing at the bottom of their conference but have nowhere to go but up. In the past two drafts the Whalers have picked up a number of promising young players who will need to make n immediate impact if they are going to help out their Name Redacted who let in 3.32 goals per game despite having a .917 save percentage.
