the eastern side of the bracket is gonna look so funny, you're gonna have the two strongest teams in the league cake walking through the two softest playoff teams, meanwhile you'll have boston, Florida, Toronto, and Tampa Bay just putting each other through a bloodbath. I can't wait god I love playoff hockey
LGI man this great we are in the top 15 right now!! š§”š§”šš
If you count games in hand and the Leafs win their games in hand over Florida they're only 1 point behind them for second. Wouldn't be surprised if Leafs take second at the death this season and have home ice again.
The Playoffs are a completely different animal, including the officiating. Teams that you would like to be matched against in the first round, suddenly don't look as easy. You can throw the power rankings for the regular season out the window for the playoffs, except for the bottom 16 teams.
Is the Pens making the playoffs the worst thing that could happen to them? I feel like they are delaying the inevitable
Didn't you say last week that the Pens season was over for a while now? Why are you deflecting attention to others, when you made a colossal mistake lol?
Toronto absolutely could catch Florida. I donāt think it ultimately matters too much if they actually do though. Home, road, just go out and win, but the Leafs are 4 points back of Florida with 2 games in hand and are playing much better than the Panthers
The most important month of rankings
Glad we're at #2, thought that Boston L would have moved us down. It will be an interesting finish for sure, bit I don't think they can catch the Rangers.
The leafs could easily catch florida
RIP kraken. Shame we just played the ducks three times and blew moving to a better draft spot. At least Shane wright looks like a net front beast
Ducks are a team divided. 1/2 are looking forward to Hawaiāi and the others to Cabo.
For Shannon it was 1999 and 2011 and a lot of jerseys. For me it was 51 years of a lot of jerseys, thenā¦2019. Gloria! L-G-B!!
All the top 16 teams are playoff teams by the end of the regular season.
Letās go panthers!
Players want the home ice advantage. President's symbolizes that. I'm a goalie. No superstition attached to that trophy.
the real thing about the Rangers is that whether they win the President's trophy or not, everyone is 0-0 in a week or so..
Pens fan here, Iāve been saying we were cooked for a month now.
Wild shit
As a Devils fan, they belong in the bottom row….they blew 3 games with 2 goal leads, they blew the 1 goal lead against NY, and last night, they almost blew a 3 goal lead. I agree 100% They need some good defense. By far most disappointing season I have witnessed.
I was telling everyone not to overresct to the Pens being out of a playoff spot. They were still outscoring several teams above them and had games in hand. They still might not make it, but they deserved a chance to not blow everything up at the trade deadline.
Blues 0-3 vs Sharks this year.
Unbelievable ( (dammit ugh grrrrr )
good news, we have a lot of thoroughbreds coming up…
Hey Brady… ! .. we're holding #7 for you…
"if they just had better goaltending and defense.."
Yeah thats 2 of the 3 big things in hockey.
Its nice to see NJ be such š© this year when some had them going to the cup.
Colorado too low
Toronto too high
Crosby acting kinda like a teenager donāt ya think?
It all depends on where the flames draft. Most flames fans would love to draft tij iginla
Thereās no WAY Nashville is above Winnipeg!š¤¦āāļø
Here come the Bolts, Here come the Bolts!!!! It's still a joke that the Lightning just handled Toronto but you still have them ahead of Tampa, who has also beaten the top 3 teams int the East in he last two weeks, all on the road.
As a Vegas fan, I think you are 100% correct in your assessment. Though Iām not sure I share your confidence in their potential playoff performance considering how up and down they have been for too long this season
