Poll: Dog Days of Summer. Where Will We Finish in The 2023/24 Western Conference Standings?

[J-Dizzle]

While it wouldn't be surprising to see another move or two, as the team stands right now where do you think we will finish this year in the Western Conference Standings?

[Master Mind]

8th or 9th

 

Likely in the mix with a few other teams to bump Winnipeg out of a spot

[McBackup]

I voted 9th. I think this team has improved, but not enough to make the playoffs barring some unexpectedly poor showings from other teams. 

 

If we get into the postseason, its almost certainly with a wildcard berth.

Pffffff 8th or 9th!?!? We winning the Presidents trophy brah!

[Timråfan]

I thought around 5-7 so I said 6.

but if teams like the Flames is a s bad the coming season I see us max out at 3.

[Alflives]

105 points. Alf’s empties have chimed. All bow. 

[VegasCanuck]

Although I think this team has ability to do a 100 point season as they sit right now, it's impossible to fully forecast until we see the last changes that teams will do within the Western Conference. Canucks still need to make at least one trade, baring injury in camp.

 

How that trade rounds out the team will really determine our end position.

 

[250Integra]

Probably 6th or 7th.

 

Colorado

Edmonton

Dallas

Minnesota

Vegas

Canucks

Kraken

Kings

Pacific Division standings at seasons end, I think 5 Pacific Division teams get into the playoffs

 

1. Edmonton*

2. LA*

3. Vegas*

4. Vancouver* - WC

5. Seattle* - WC

------------------

6. Anaheim

7. Calgary

8. San Jose

I think we will make the playoffs. That's all I can say I believe to be true. But there are lots of variables:

 

- Seattle has been better than I think most of us expected. Can they continue their strong play?

- How good are the Avs now? They made the playoffs, but were handily disposed of. Are they currently a playoff team?

- Do the Flames return to form as a playoff team, or are they just screwed for years now?

 

...and for us, Can the Canucks play like their team on paper would suggest? Will the team find a groove under Tocchet? Did management actually fix our D?

But yeah. I'd say this is a playoff team, but probably not good enough to make any extended waves during post-season.

Voted 7th but I can see them finish as high as 3rd or 4th if absolutely everything clicks for them. I can also see us finish at around 10th again for mediocrity.

[Pears]

LA

Edmonton

Vegas

Colorado

Dallas

Seattle

Vancouver

Winnipeg

 

I originally said 5th but I think 6th-8th is definitely the most realistic.

Seattle will miss the playoffs. They stink. 

[Ghostsof1915]

I'm tempted to Vote Calgary. Just because it's an option....

 

[Iron Fist]

seven or eight.  don't have enough depth if injuries hit

This is where I sit as well ... 6-8. Would be a great step forward. We need to get into the playoffs and take those steps forward.

5th?

[D.B Cooper]

I’m going to say 8th 
Im really hoping we can snag a wildcard spot, but history says……

We will probably start out 1-6 after the road trip to start, then struggle to dig out of the hole over the year.  
We will make a huge push to end the season and miss the playoff by just a few points.
