Can Connor Bedard break out and help pull the Chicago Blackhawks rebuild out of the muck? Are the Utah Mammoth primed to make a serious leap? Can the Nashville Predators shake off a shockingly miserable season? And are the St. Louis Blues really as good as they were down the stretch last year? In a special Central Division Hopefuls Round Table preview, Ann Kimmel (Locked On Predators), Haley Taylor Simon (Locked On Blues), Tom Callahan (Locked On Mammoth) and Jack Bushman (Locked On Blackhawks) talk about life in the bottom half of the NHL’s toughest division. They predict whether each team will hit over or under their FanDuel points projections, talk about major offseason additions and breakout candidates, reasons for optimism, and which of the four teams stands the best chance of being in the playoffs come season’s end.
