Anyway, I like this thread.  |
Flyers will be "better" but not sick. They have a chance at making the 7 or 8 seed in the playoffs. The only reason people think they are going to be better is because of Biron and Briere.
First, Biron is only good when he has a decent defense in front of him, and we all know the Flyers defense was absolutely horrid last year. It really hasn't changed in the offseason. Secondly, Briere we only a beast because he put up 95 points, most of which were assists to players who could actually score. Philly doesn't have anyone like that. Mark my words, Flyers will be better, but not amazing.
P.S. - I actually think the Habs will come out of the Eastern Conference in the top 4 this year. Although they lost Souray, most of the other teams in the East lost talent. I think they are going to be better because of the change in all the other teams, if that makes sense.
