3. Dallas Stars - 2023-24 Result: Lost in Western Conference Finals

The Dallas Stars have a legit shot at winning it all next season

What else do the Dallas Stars need to do? They have superstars at every position. They have a number one center, a number one defenseman, and an elite goalie combined with all of that depth.

They just need to find a way to win the big game. That will come with experience over time. Some of the older (slower) veterans are out of there and that should allow younger players to get in there and use their speed better.

4. Colorado Avalanche - 2023-24 Result: Lost in Second Round

The Colorado Avalanche are going to continue dominating the league

The Colorado Avalanche has Nathan MacKinnon, Mikko Rantanen, and Cale Makar. These three superstars may form the best trio in the NHL.

The Avalanche won the Stanley Cup in 2022 and are still trying to put the pieces for a championship run back together. The core is there in place to continue building back around.
