Its 7 teams fighting over 5 spots. Somebody will drop, play decent hockey and you will make it. Teams like Minny, Vegas, Seattle, LA are all showing cracks IMO. Preds went on a bit of a run but that was largely goaltending and I can't see that as sustainable.

Despite what you hear on CP Vladar has been getting the bulk of the starts of late and his points percentage speaks for itself
So that's why I don't understand their numbers...90% and 83%? Craziness.

Buffalo is 19 - 9 - 4 since Nov 19
Ottawa is 18 - 11 - 2 since Nov 23

I don't think either team can be considered a bad team anymore.

This is exactly why trying to forecast schedule difficulty at the beginning of the season is pointless. Too many unknown variables.

That's good in a way where Flames always play down to bad team.

Hopefully the boys can cut way back on the giveaways and defensive brain cramps from last game. Won’t make the playoffs playing like that.

Nice to see a pre game show for the game watching the Red Wings broadcast, why can't we have nice things?
