Mile High Pundit Conference

Power Ranking	Team Name / General Manager	Notes
1st Overall 1st in Conference	North Kariya Donnie Walters	Many players dropped, added, and placed on IR. Let's see how that turns out when players comes back from IR. GM, Donnie Walters is looking for the Edmonton Oilers first line to carry the team by picking up Connor McDavid (1st overall pick) and Evander Kane (56th overall pick) in the draft. Solid defense with the goaltender position lacking a superstar. Questionable team name, but it will be allowed. Strange decision to pick up New York Rangers enforcer, Ryan Reaves, and then drop him immediately after the draft.
2nd Overall 2nd in Conference	Your Moms Aho Dalton Adams	Many top tier players for individual teams. Added St. Louis foward, Brayden Schenn, through waivers and then immediately dropped in favor of Boston Bruins blueliner, Hampus Lindholm. YOLO moment? Defense is balanced with hitters and some point scoring.
4th Overall 3rd in Conference	I Am Ron Burgundy? Kaleb Cornell	Top quality team name. Defense would be the strongest point for this team. Looking for a breakout season from Barzal. Contains the Rat Man but it will be allowed by this reporter.
5th Overall 4th in Conference	Fleece City Sakics Jared Shuck	Quality forwards as they are not the best player on the team but mightily contribute with goals and points. Has the best defensemen in the NHL, don't come at this reporter with other defensemen. Goaltenders are decent, however they play on teams with questionable defenses.
7th Overall 5th in Conference	The Wu-Tanguay Clan Joel James	Name was very creative, one this reporter has not seen yet. Stole Landeskog from Surging to Victory! after a misclick. Has two top Minnesota Wild players which is weird for an Avs fan. Overall solid team.
10th Overall 6th in Conference	Chicago Goldens Sierra Ogbourne (Shuck)	Looking for MacK attack to come back Jack! Defense apart from Letang is lacking but made up for with quality goaltenders. No added players which makes this reporter very happy.
12th Overall 7th in Conference	Team Tuukka My Rask Hunter Hodies	Thank god for not added any players. Looking for Draisatl to carry this team on his back, just like Lamar Jackson for the Ravens. Decent team but they do have Binnington so how decent can they actually be.

WoHawkey Conference

Power Ranking	Team Name / General Manager	Notes
3rd Overall 1st in Conference	Indianapolis Racers Evan Dziobak	Added so many players to make this reporter dislike his job. Hoping that Matthews will score 60+ this season. Questionable defense but makes up with a couple decent goaltenders.
6th Overall 2nd in Conference	Raleighwood Surge Zach Martin	Great pick in Marner as he could be used as s defenseman during the season. High quality defensemen with Hughes and Josi. Hoping that Josi can put up another 90 point season but this reporter is unsure about another 90 points. Goaltenders are average and not the cream of the crop. On top of adding players and tends to be rude to this reporter.
8th Overall 3rd in Conference	Staal Tactics Kat Hunter	This team looks to replicate soccer and park the bus on their opponents. Picked up a lot of players that have been traded to other teams so let's see if it pays off for them Cotton. Clearly has some favoritism towards the Canes as they already traded for another Canes player. Three Canes players more than anyone else for a particular team.
9th Overall 4th in Conference	Surging to Victory! Bailey Curtis	Barely squeaks at the 9 spot or else this reporter's food will be poisoned. When Aho comes up against Your Mom's Aho, tensions may rise. Quality team overall, but nothing outstanding.
11th Overall 5th in Conference	Turn TheLights Off Spencer Post	Traded very early which was strange, especially giving away Slavin. Has quality players in Svech, Pasta, and Hedman. But the rest of the team is lacking slightly, even with Giroux possibly playing with Debrincat. Giroux could be a massive boom or bust. The season shall decide. Team has favoritism for former Avalanche goalies. Hard to rank this team but being slightly less pessimistic as many players could flourish or disintegrate.
13th Overall 6th in Conference	RockYou LikeAHurriKane Beth Bolger	Not a Canes fan but a Blackhawks fan, what a strange choice. Quality goaltending with Shesterkin and possibly Georgiev but the future holds the answer. Team is struggling but it is because this team has some players that are just on some bad teams so how well will they actually do? Unfortunately had to place McAvoy on IR which hurts their defense massively.
14th Overall 7th in Conference	Rockford Dagger Courtney Bauman	This owner thinks highly of her team, and I can't deny that, however these other teams just had a bit more. Quality forwards and a less than average defense. Goalies for this team will expose if this team can do well or not. Picking up Petersen has me optimistic but goaltenders that had been drafted are the worst pairing in the league in this reporter's opinion. Hopeful for this team but had to be harsh as it's my job.
