After January 2, 2012:
1. Vancouver (24-13-2)
2. Winnipeg (19-14-4)
3. Ottawa (19-15-4)
4. Toronto (18-15-5)
5. Calgary (18-17-5)
6. Montreal (14-18-7)
7. Edmonton (15-19-3)
The Canucks, Senators and Jets had an excellent month in December, and are the three Canadian teams that would make the playoffs if the season ended today. Calgary and Toronto have struggled, and are on the outside looking in. The Habs have been dreadful, and the Oilers are in total collapse after a fast start.
