With the new division rivalries scheduling format (which I think is crap BTW) the Lightning get to play Carolina, Washington, Florida and Atlanta 8 times each. Carolina and Washington are, arguably, the 2 worst teams in the league. Florida is improving, but still not a legit playoff team. Atlanta could be better, but if Kovalchuck doesn’t come back then they are worse … much worse.

So basically a guaranteed 1-3 seed with home ice and probably should be a 1 playing teams that bad, that often.

If it wasn’t for Habby’s play in the playoffs last year they would not have won the cup, not a chance. There were too many 1 goal games where he stood on his head. Burke can’t play like that and I don’t think Grahame is very consistent. That will be their achilles heel. I think they should go grab another goalie. I’m sure they could work out a deal to pick up Biron, or even take a chance on signing Potvin or Tugnutt, two guys who have the ability to steal games. I predict Burke to go down with injuries and Grahame to buckle under the pressures of a starting job.
