If they lose in OT or SO they're still behind the Preds.

Only if Detroit wins. If they only get one point, Nashville will be ahead on ROWs no matter what.

I respect that and I hope QC will get a new team.

PS

I can't wait for Flyers vs Pens game to start altough I anticipate a huge letdown, I just hope they hate each other enough to go full retard today.

Detroit, with the worst road record of all playoff teams except Washington, now has to play Nashville, the 4th best home playoff team, on the road.

Preds in six.

I would be absolutely shocked if Phoenix returned next season. Glendale is hemorrhaging money trying to keep the team in town. Heck, even local politicians have reached out to the NHL recently to "solve this problem." IF the 'Yotes did move (which would be awful for the Phoenix fans), the team better like heck be going back to QC.

IMO Shaw could develop into poor man's Marchand

Why is Calgary above us in the standings?

Need a big game from Anaheim today. Already losing 1-0.

The league has got many things to fix, the loser point is one of them.

Yeah, that's what made no sense to me.

Letang dives, Crosby scores.

Panthers win the division, faces NJ in first round.

Nucks get the President's Trophy

Bill Peckerskull · 04-07-2012, 11:38 PM

Man, the Kings are playing dirty tonight. Boarding fools left and right. They might kill Couture before the game is over.

Bill Peckerskull · 04-07-2012, 11:39 PM

And now it's tied.

If you guys wouldn't mind checking if this link works...

https://skydrive.live.com/?sc=docume...3CF314F3%21280

It should lead you to a document I threw together real quick which compares actual NHL top 300 scorers versus TSN predicted ones. http://tsn.ca/fantasy_news/feature/?fid=49646

There's lots which can be deduced from there. Still would like to do some team statistics and such, but just wanted to see if this link works for now.

Interestingly, Duchene has the worst drop of any projected player, 227 spots lower than predicted.

Another interesting fact is TSN predicted an average of 14 PPPs in the top 300, despite there only being an average of 4.

The most intriguing quarterfinal matchup is Philly-Pittsburgh. Hands down.

Congo Jack · 04-08-2012, 02:10 PM

Viktor Fasth signs with the Ducks....do they really need more goalies?

JWK · 04-08-2012, 02:46 PM

I don't care about the Calder much, but I want Landeskog to win because he's been great for us and to make Oiler fans whine 24/7 about how RNH didn't win it.

Same here, the amusement level would be trough the roof.

If I was going to pick one team to be terrible over the next decade, it would be Edmonton and it wouldn't be close

I think they'll be great, I say Calgary as terrible.
