How well the Lightning and their aging core perform this season will depend on whether they can keep outracing the clock.

3. Led by MacKinnon and Makar, the Avs project to finish in the top-5 for the first time since 2022 www.nytimes.com/athletic/668...

Despite a first-round exit at the hands of Mikko Rantanen, the Avalanche look hungry to get back on track.

4. After making yet another splash with the Marner signing, the Golden Knights are looking to go all the way www.nytimes.com/athletic/667...

Vegas is as all in on the Stanley Cup as ever, and anything short of a serious run will be both a surprise and a disappointment.

5. With some high-end additions this summer, the Hurricanes are looking to breakthrough past the Eastern Conference Final www.nytimes.com/athletic/667...

8. The Jets are playoff caliber, but what they do next spring will determine whether this season was actually a success

Losing Nikolaj Ehlers and adding Jonathan Toews leaves the Jets with a lot of questions to answer before next spring.

10. Is the Panthers' deep lineup enough to make up for a season without Barkov, and half the year without Tkachuk? The regular season officially matters again in Florida.
