After all the moves made at the draft and earlier this month, there are teams that made the playoffs that took a big step back.

In the East, in spite of the departures of OEL, Montour, Tarasenko, and some depth players, Florida will still make the playoffs….but the biggest dropoff appears to be Tampa Bay. They did add Guentzel and brought back McDonagh, but they traded one of their top four D in Sergachev and their treatment of Steven Stamkos may have ripped the heart out of the organization.

Rumors to come
