1st. Dresden Monarchs
I still have Dresden as my favorite to win the whole thing… buuuut Potsdam could also be in this spot. The Monarchs are looking super solid so far — Tyler Hudson has been going absolutely insane on offense. The defense could clean some things up, but I still really like this squad.
