Other than the fact that I'm a Barry Trotz clone and trying to find a way to wrap a tie aroung my non-existant neck; I'm really liking where the Preds are right now. I don't really care WHO the Preds play in the playoffs, just want them to MAKE the playoffs. After that, ranks don't matter. Anything can happen in the playoffs. We say "I don't want SJ" but they have been swooning as usual. Chicago's weakness is goaltending and defense health. Phoenix is an unknown who's hot much like Nashville. Vancouver has Luongo but his stats are just slightly better than Rinne and Ellis.
I'm not worried. Right now Sports club stats has Nashville at a 98.3% chance of making the playoffs. 2 wins out of 9 gets Nashville to the magic 101st number of 93. (Way things are going 94 is a lot safer in my mind.)
