The top 10 are: 1. Pittsburgh Penguins 8/1 2. New York Rangers 9/1 3. Vancouver Canucks 11/1 4. Los Angeles Kings 12/1 5. Philadelphia Flyers 13/1 6. Chicago Blackhawks 14/1 7. Detroit Red Wings 15/1 8. Boston Bruins 16/1 9. St. Louis Blues 16/1 10. Minnesota Wild 18/1 The Nash deal made us move up from 12/1 to 9/1. And moved Columbus down from 75/1 to 100/1. I also thought it was crazy to see where the Wild ended up.
My final questions are answered over at Jackets Cannon guys. We talk about Artem Anisimov's transition to a new area, Brandon Dubinsky bouncing back and more. Click the link below!
Jackets Cannon has posted the first part of my Q&A with the site about the Rick Nash move. Why don't you guys head over there and take a look?

Local Pitt writer says they need to move Paul Martin to sign Parise/Suter and reup Crosby. If they are looking to free up cap, could probably get him for cheap. MCG- DannyG - Staal- Matin -MDZ -Erixson in any order, or even makes MDZ open for trade as long as (Sauer/Stralman/Bickle) can hold the 6th spot. Thoughts?
Oh great, NYR get to open the season in LA with the banner raising ceremony.
