After a half decade-plus of trying and failing to crack the Top-4 of the NHL’s Atlantic Division, are one or more of the Ottawa Senators, Buffalo Sabres and Detroit Red Wings primed to finally get back to the playoffs? And are the Montreal Canadiens happy to chill out at the bottom of the standings for one more year? In this special Locked On NHL Season Preview Round Table, Ross Levitan (Locked On Senators), Joe DiBiase (Locked On Sabres), Laura Saba (Locked On Canadiens) and Brian Fisher (Locked On Red Wings) take stock of the Atlantic’s playoff hopefuls. How will the Linus Ullmark addition change the Senators’ fortunes. What’s the temperature on the Yzer-Plan in Detroit? Can the Sabres afford to add to their league-worst 13-year playoff drought? And are the Canadiens another high draft pick away from becoming a real problem?Plus, the biggest reasons for optimism for each team, key offseason additions, breakout players and what’s at stake if their team misses out on the playoffs... again.
