Biggest Acquisition: Stephan Yelle

Not many changes for their club, I guess they hope the Bruins can repeat into the playoffs and stay in there until they reach 16 wins.

Biggest Lost: Kristian Huselius

Biggest Acquisition: Todd Bertuzzi

The Flames got kicked out of the playoffs in 7 games by Evgeni Nabokov and the San Jose Sharks. Even with the lost of offence by Kristian Huselius, but with the much added grit from veteran Todd Bertuzzi. Lets see is Jarome Iginla, Miika Kipursoff and re-signed Daymond Langkow can lead the Flames to victory.

Biggest Lost: Erik Cole

Biggest Acquisition: None

Lets hope the Hurricanes can get back into the playoffs this year without veteran Erik Cole. They got kicked out by 1 point by superstar Alexander Ovechkin and his Washington Capitals.

Biggest Lost: Patrick Lalime

Biggest Acquisition: Brian Campbell

With all the new young player talent with Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews being the newest captain of the Blackhawks. With good defence out of Brian Campbell in front of goalie Nikolai Khabibulin. Well lets see how they do.

Biggest Lost: Jose Theodore

Biggest Acquisition: Re-Signing of Joe Sakic

The Avalanche can only get better if Joe Sakic helps out his team as captain even more. Joe Sakic can only get better in his leaderships skills.

Biggest Lost: Gilbert Brule

Biggest Aquisition: Raffi Torres

With Captain Rick Nash at the steering wheel, can Nash steer the Blue Jackets to a playoff spot with Raffi Torres maybe at his wing. We will find out during this coming season.

Biggest Lost: None

Biggest Acguisition: Sean Avery

The Stars are probably hoping that with the addition of fighter Sean Avery, they probably hope he'll be put with rough houser Brenden Morrow.

Biggest Lost: None

Biggest Acquisition: Marian Hossa

The reigning Stanley Cup Champs are looking even better with the addition of backbone goalie Ty Conklin, who would help out Chris Osgood if he was ever injured or unable to play. And with the second addition of the Slovakian superstar Marian Hossa, well I look at the Red Wings as a possible Cup winning streak if they keep this up.

Biggest Acquisition: Erik Cole

The Oilers put on the young face last year with Sam Gagner and Andrew Cogliano the main attraction last year...which landed them a spot not in the playoffs but on the golf course. Can the Oilers return to their glory days?

Lets Hope with the lost of Captain Olli Jokinen, that they can hold up the fort until they find they're next leader.

Re: *The Crosby Effect* A Penguins Dynasty 2.0

Biggest Lost: Rob Blake

Biggest Acquisition: Drew Doughthy

With their captain defencemen Rob Blake gone, can Drew Doughty take over as their defencive threat or is hope all lost for the Kings future.

Re: *The Crosby Effect* A Penguins Dynasty 2.0

Biggest Lost: Brian Rolston

Biggest Acquisition: Andrew Brunette

The Wild were both unfortunate and fortunate. Losing Brian Rolston and Pavol Demitra is always a bad thing to happen to a team, two veruy solid players. But with the arrival of Owen Nolan AND Andrew Brunette, well we'll see how good this Wild team can be.

Biggest Acquisition: Alex Tanguay

The Canadiens are going to celebrate their 100th NHL season in franchise history. A NHL record. The Habs hope that in their 100th year they can achieve their 25th Stanley Cup with the help of newly acquired forward Alex Tanguay and young phenomanel goalie Carey Price between the pipes.

Nothing pretty much happened to the Preadators happen. The Preadators are keeping a steady mind on the cap space and hope they don't just squeak into the playoffs for two years straight.
