from John Buccigross of ESPN,
Every September, I begin another season of weekly hockey columns by attempting to predict the top eight teams in each conference. This season, I added a “vibe” for each team. Let’s look back and see what I wrote then, and I’ll update where each pick stands today. I’ll list the teams in the order of their projected finish.
Western Conference
15. Los Angeles Kings
The vibe: Hope. I know it sounds strange, but I like the Kings’ position. They have very good young players who also appear to have some character.Now: The Kings still might finish 15th in the tight West, but that is unimportant. Hope is alive, and with another year of experience and a free agent or two, the Kings will be thinking playoffs next season.
