This week Alex and Chace take a look at the busy 2018 Atlantic Division. The guys as always, rank where they think each team will finish and why.<\/p>\n<p>They start off with the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/nhl-teams\/senators\/\" target=\"_self\">Ottawa Senators<\/a> and break down the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/k\/karlser01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Erik Karlsson<\/strong><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/2018\/09\/13\/ottawa-senators-trade-erik-karlsson\/\" target=\"_self\">trade<\/a>. The guys then take a look at how badly the Sens screwed up and what this means for this season. They then look at the rest of the bottom of the division. Both Alex and Chace agree this division is very top heavy.<\/p>\n<p>Next, they look at two teams that find themselves in the middle of the division. Alex is mad about a take he has frequently seen online lately and doesn&#8217;t understand why. They break down where the 4th and 5th teams fall in this division and what they look like going forward.<\/p>\n<p>Following that, they break down the top of the division and how they see what could be a tight race unfolding. Alex explains why he doesn&#8217;t have Chace&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/nhl-teams\/maple-leafs\/\" target=\"_self\">Leafs<\/a> in the first spot. Do you agree with the rankings? Where would you place them?<\/p>\n<p>Tune in for all of this and more, with the MnM Hockey Podcast!<\/p>\n<p><em>Who are Alex and Chace? Alex and Chace are both from Waterloo region in Ontario Canada. Both of them grew up playing hockey and shortly after fell in love with analyzing\u00a0it. Chace is a noted Leafs and Penguins fan, while Alex is a die-hard Senators fan. You can find Alex\u2019s work at LastWordOnHockey.com.
