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.

The Jets remind me of the Trashers last year, they'll fade down the stretch IMO. For a team that is "struggling" and on the outside looking in, Calgary is just one point behind the mighty Jets.
Other than Vancouver, none of the Canadian teams are very good and I wouldn't be surprised if VAN was the only one to make the playoffs. One in the East likely will due to odds and weak opposition.
