I support the Colorado Avalanche...it was great in the beginning then shit in the middle now it is great again.
I don't think the central division has gotten that strong over the off season, so it shouldn't be too difficult to get into the playoffs, unless injuries become a problem again.
Hopefully the new additions will add greatly to the team. Johansen, the 2c they have been needing since Kadri left, Drouin, from what I have heard, looks like Nate was really pushing for the Avs to bring him, so I hope they get to play together and make a huge impact, Colton and Wood will hopefully be good additions to the bottom 6 and make for great depth players.
I am not sure how big hockey is in England, but I always thought the NHL should market quite a bit there, I think if they held the NHL world cup of hockey there with all the superstars, people would go, may be build a bigger following there, maybe the NHL can work with the major league and over the summer bring some of the big nhl teams and play some exhibition matches or hold a global series over there.
