The official NHL thread
The Avs are currently 4 points ahead of the Canucks in the northwest division. Looks like we'll clinch the division title for sure now that (Todd) Bertuzzi has been suspended for the rest of the season. Tommorow's game against the Coyotes "should" be an easy one.

with the acquisition of Ron Francis (4th highest scorer in NHL history), toronto should have an easy win over the penguins besides.. its been like, what, something like SIXTY years since the stanley cup was back in toronto .. its about time it came home where it belongs

The Detroit Red Wings are second to Tampa Bay Lightning in points. NHL League Standings The Avs and Canucks are way down on the rankings. Therefore, you can bet my money still is on the Wings. Even with their long list of injuries.
BTW: The wings won in pre-season against the Canucks, and Avs, but tied the Lightning... |

Meh, I know it's a long shot, but I'm going with my Flames. I have a feeling they'll be this year's Mighty Ducks. Hey, 7 years of disappointment and they're finally picking it up this year.
But seriously, I think it's gonna be the Sens and probably Detroit or Dallas in the finals. Honestly, I don't think the Canucks and the Avs have the goaltending to carry them to the finals. And the Leafs? If Belfour gets injured, it's over for them. Kidd's a real crappy goalie (I've known that since he was with the Flames), if he has to relieve Belfour, it's over. Besides, the Leafs are my most hated team in the league. Even though I'm Canadian, I'd rather any team win it other than the Leafs. |

Still it looks like the playoffs will be tough this year for the eastern teams. It's only 11 points seperating the first and 7th seeds. (as of thursday morning, I don't have the results of all the games played thursday ) By the way, has anyone else noticed that it's possible for a team to lose every game and still make the playoffs? An overtime loss is worth one point. There are 82 games a season. Therefore, losing every game in OT will get a team 82 points. That's normally enough to make the playoffs. Of course that's very unlikely as a team good enough to force OT in every game is also good enough to win a few. And losing every game means the team is giving away 164 points, which makes it less likely that 82 will be enough to get in.

Anyways, with the 82 point theory there. I dunno if it would ever be possible. Reguarly you need about 90-95 points to get into the playoffs. And like you said, they would be giving away 164 points. I highly doubt you could do that, unless the 7 teams above you totally dominate and all the teams below you suck. |

Bad night for the Leafs yesterday with a 3-2 defeat against the worst team in the league, the Penguins. I'm wondering why Belfour wasn't on the ice since he wasn't injured.
Other scores: Bruins 3 - 2 Sabres (OT) Stars 2 - 2 Flyers (OT) Red Wings 4 - 2 Blue Jackets Panthers 3 - 2 Canadiens (OT) Blackhawks 4 - 6 Devils Predators 1 - 1 Blues (OT) Senators 2 - 4 Flames Islanders 4 - 5 Sharks Quote:

Also, so what if they lost to the penguins? It doesn't matter if they lose in regular season, all that matters is the playoffs where the cup is coming home. ///_^ |
