Too Busy watching the Canuckss edge them selves closer to homeice advantage

Who won the Hockeyville contest? I missed it.

i think north bay, but not 100% sure.

can't stay silent any longer...

Calgary! Watch your backs! You have an Avalanche coming after you!

Never would have thought they would be this close. They looked absolutely awful all season. They flipped a switch this month. Something tells me it was a month too late

Calgary has been awful lately, why do I have a feeling Mr. Sutter will be behind the bench soon?!?

I'm rooting for the Avalanche. Poor Mikka is looking like the 3rd string, (5th round draft choice) goalie that he was as a shark...that's right...third string...

PS. Im just joshin flame fans..

combined with the hottest Avs team since 2004 equals a close playoff race.

I can't believe they made up 6 points in a week.

4 point difference and 2 games left with calgary.

Should be interesting to watch.

Who knows about the East! Anyone can get in there

Wow, I forgot about this place.

I'll be rooting for the Sharks in the West, and the Sabres in the East. I'm a Red Wings fan, but there's no way I can root for them with Bertuzzi on the team.

Anybody see Jordin Tootoo of the Preds go off on the Stars? Kind of a cheap shot at the end.

They do not need Bert to suck...1-4

heh...same ole Claus.

What do you think of your 'nucks? Since I'm not living on the left coast any more, I don't get to see their games at all. Do they have enough grit to make it a few rounds? I know Luongo has been impressive.

I used to think the Ducks were a lock to come out of the west, but I'm not so sure any more. I don't expect much from my Wings. I do think the Sharks could get far, if Nabby and Toskala continue their hot play.

I'm not so sure about the Sabres in the east too. Trading Biron might not have been the best idea. Miller just hasn't stood out this year to me. Too streaky.

My darkhorse is Atlanta. I guess a first place team can't be a darkhorse, but I think most hockey fans expect the Thrashers to bow out in the first round. Getting Tkachuk really helped them.

New Jersey is a team nobody wants to play in the post-season. All that experience, and Brodeur in net. I'm not a believe of the Pens. No defense, and streaky goaltending. They'll be playing golf after the first round.

Wow I just noticed you moved, could you not have picked a warmer place?.

Having not missed a single game all season i now have to say the Canucks has the biggest chance since the late 1980ties to makke it atleast to the final 4. Luongo is 5 games away from an NHL record for seasons wins. The changes as of late with the new coach as highlight has been the key to get it under way.

I look forward to a Wings canucks slugfest...Too bad you are not out here, just bled for the 4 first games of the play-off's.

Yeah, the move was a hard one to make. The wife and I miss Seattle like crazy.

You got playoff tix, eh? Niiice. You seem pretty confident in the 'Nucks. I dumped my Center Ice subscription, so I haven't seen any of their games. Getting Luongo was money. Just looking at the stats, it looks like they're playing good D.

I'm kind of regretting dumping my Center Ice subscription. This past Friday I fractured my right kneecap, and I'll be off my feet for 6-8 weeks. Just in time for playoff hockey.

Holy Shite..you owed some Irish guy Money?. Hope you get back 100%, I gotta say I have enjoyed the season this year, and I am bummed it is almost over. Get Center Ice back, you gonna need it.

Mean time here is a Spiderman game for ya :

use mouse to grab

lolz. No, it was an accident at work. I go to an orthopedic surgeon tomorrow to find out if I need surgery. Hopefully I don't.

I broke my ankle about 9 years ago playing hockey, and this current injury hurts a LOT worse. Oxycodone, for the win.

Thanks for the game.

BTW, Pens and Rangers tonight on Versus. That's the only hockey I can get.

Pens 3-1

no mention of the preds?

Canucks are solid, whether they win by a goal or 3 goals (who am i kidding, they never win by 3) they always seem to find a way to win. I have not been more confident in a Canucks team ever.

2-1 tonight, it was a little too close for such a poor calibre non-playoff team, but a win is a win. and wow did Bobby Lu ever play solid in net.

Tampa Bay-Carolina-________ (see a trend yet?) Nashville? Atlanta? The South will rise again? :p

It's so tough to call this year. The East-Buffalo, Pitt? The West-Calgary, San Jose, Anahiem?

CALGARY???? bawwwaaaaaaahahahaaaa

Come on give the red white and Blue some credit. Once we spank the preds on Wed (yes I will be front and center) we are headed for the Division

I've always been a big fan of Luongo and Daniel Sedin but I'm not convinced yet. They have a great top 4 D with Bieksa, Ohlund, Mitchell and Salo but up front besides the Sedins? They say D wins in the playoffs so you have that going for you but, you need to put the puck in the net too. Teams will try to shut down the Sedins and Pyatt, if they do?? I'm looking forward to seeing a tough team like Anaheim in the playoffs, the West is going to have soem great series this year. I can't wait, 3 more weeks!!!!!

But still Big, Calgary? these clowns can't even win on the road...

Hey, I have to keep the faith for my backup team! I'll jump on a bandwagon for round 2, I'm sure. It will depend on who I enjoy watching.

Calgary better learn pretty quick how to win on the road. Colorado is only 6 points behind them (86-80) in the race for the final playoff spot in the West. The 'Lanche have an extra game to play too.

I have a feeling Playfair's days are numbered.

and they play two games against each other. One of those games is the last game for each! Suddenly its going down to the wire.

How does Calgary win How please explain. I couldnt watch it and thank god I didnt or shit would be flyin. For once IM glad I was at work. Ugh what the HELL
