NHL 2011-2012 Season Preview
Now that the hockey season is underway, here are my predictions on how the season will shape up this year in the NHL.
Here's how the Eastern Conference will look: The Philadelphia Flyers will win the Atlantic Division by barely edging out the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Penguins are gonna need Sydney Crosby to come back from his concussion that has had him missing an extended amount of time. In the Northeast Division, the defending champion Boston Bruins will come out on top with their outstanding goalie Tim Thomas. In the Southeast there is absolutely no reason that the Washington Capitals will not win that division. Alex Ovechkin will be the MVP of the season this year, and they will be a force to be reckoned with in the playoffs.
In the Western Conference, the Chicago Blackhawks will win the division with MVP candidate Jonathan Toews. The Blackhawks will squeak by the Detroit Red Wings. The Vancouver Canucks will win the Northwest as they did last year, and finally the San Jose Sharks will repeat in the Pacific even though many experts believe that the LA Kings can win that division.
The Flyers will win the East and play the San Jose Sharks in the Stanley Cup Finals, with the San Jose Sharks left hoisting the Stanley Cup Trophy at the end of the season.
