The 2023-24 NHL season arrives with a handful of new teams ready to take the leap toward contending status. There are also plenty of others trying to hang on to playoff spots. The next several months could represent a changing of the guard in hockey as the likes of Buffalo, Ottawa and maybe Detroit and Arizona show significant improvement.
