On tonight's episode, we run through a number of the NHL teams that are worth keeping an eye on for this upcoming season. Out East, might we see the return of a better Washington Capitals squad? What will the new coaching staff squeeze out of an aging roster? Are the Lightning capable of returning to great heights, or will they encounter stormier weather? Are either of the Flyers or Penguins threats to contend, or are they thinking about the future? In the West, are the Kings prepared to take a big step forward with Dubois in tow? How will the Avs respond after a lackluster end to this past season? Might the Jets finally have a forward group that can do some real damage again?
