When Nashville dropped out of the running, I assumed that Detroit would rule this Division. I was wrong.
Chicago has done well against Detroit, led by Patrick Kane (and, the other day, by Patrick Sharp). The team has always had good goaltending. Now it can score.
St. Louis is led capably by veterans on the top scoring line (including Kariya and Tkachuk) and a young defensive core, some of it currently injured. Who'd have thought that Legace would be this dependable in goal?
Columbus has always underachieved, which is another way of saying that the team has always had talent. Nash is one of the best, as is Federov when he cares enough to play. Goaltending has been a weakness in the past but seems to be good now. The defense appears to be great, and Hainsey is underrated.
Even Nashville is doing well, starting with Mason and Ellis in goal.
Detroit -- Lidstrom is the best fantasy D this year, Rafalski is good this year too. Datsuyk is good, but take a look at the wings, Zetterberg and Holmstrom.
