SEASON PREVIEW: Central Division Contenders | Jets in trouble? Avalanche or Stars at the top?

*RECORDED BEFORE KIRILL KAPRIZOV SIGNED THE LARGEST CONTRACT IN NHL HISTORY

Can the Winnipeg Jets repeat as President’s Trophy winners despite major offseason losses? Are the Colorado Avalanche under pressure to make a deep playoff run? Will the Dallas Stars finally make a Stanley Cup Final after three-straight Conference Final exits? And what about the Minnesota Wild, who are finally free from salary cap hell? In a special Central Contenders Round Table season preview, Seth Toupal (Locked On Wild), Chris Micieli (Locked On Avalanche), Joey Erickson (Locked On Stars) and Harrison Lee (Locked On Jets) team up to take stock of the best teams in arguably the NHL’s best division. They run through each team’s over/under projections on FanDuel, take stock of the biggest storylines around each team, discuss breakout candidates and offseason additions, and what’s at stake for all of these teams if they don’t meet expectations.
