They still have a top 6 full of gutless cowards who would be bullied by a middle school girls' field hockey team.  Until they address that issue, they'll continue to be an easy win for whoever gets lucky enough to play against them.

Ya. But ever take one of those sticks in the shins, yikes!

And there it is.  Canucks in tough to even make the playoffs at this point.  Calgary, Edmonton and Vegas all improved while we have some gargantuan holes in our lineup at the moment.

Still lots of time to make improvements, we'll see what happens.

 

Vegas got better, yeah. But did Edmonton really get that much better? Their goaltending is the same, their defense is largely the same Barrie aside, and they added Turris and Poolparty up front. Looks like they'll be looking to outscore their problems again, but who knows.

 

And Calgary? Sure, they added Markstrom which is an upgrade. Tanev and Hamonic is basically a wash though. They've got some cap left, but thus far they don't look all that different.

Petro is twice the player Seabrook ever was. 

Vegas will be legit contenders for another 5 yrs.  

 

Any contract can become an anchor with a player over 30, especially with the tough minutes he plays.

 

Doesnt matter who’s better, players get older and production goes down.

Has Calgary improved much?

 

They finally have a good consistent goalie that will steal some games; but they've only got 6.4m in cap space with 16 players on the roster. If Tanev gets injured again, that'll be a big hit to their D as well

Precisely.  CAL still need to fill D slots.  EDM still don't have a goalie and need more help on D.  VGK have done the easy part by signing AP.  Now they need to ship out $7m cap space to teams that are trying to cut costs.  Good luck. 

All of these teams are going to struggle to be cap compliant.  I'll reserved judgement until the rosters are set.

I really don't think their owner cares. He wants a cup within 5 yeara. Probably gonna sell the team to the highest bidder when the team stop being a contender and in cap hell. Relocation be damned.
