Unveiling the 2025-26 NHL Season: Shocking Stanley Cup Dark Horses and Award Surprises Revealed!
Granger: I picked the Minnesota Wild here. They looked like one of the better teams in the West before the injuries last season, and gave the Golden Knights a good run in the first round despite just getting guys back into the lineup. With several key players in contract years, I feel like this could be the best Wild team we’ve seen in some time.
Goldman: The Winnipeg Jets and Wild are logical picks here, although neither team really improved this summer. Vegas did, and the Dallas Stars could be better under a new(ish) head coach. So I think there’s more room for a dark horse in the East, and I went off the board with Montreal. Between their post-4 Nations Face-Off turnaround and their offseason additions, the Canadiens would probably be the most fun pick of the group here.
