Round 1 - Game 1 : Jets @ Anaheim
Ducks played in a much easier division getting to play teams like Arizona and Edmonton a few more times, we played in a division where every team, EVERY ONE OF THEM, finished with 90 points or more. Ducks were killing it earlier in the year, running away with it, thought they'd be presidents trophy winners at one point but something happened there, they haven't played as well recently, their goaltending is just as questionable as ours, Gibson hasn't been so good this year and Anderson is hot and cold, Who is even starting for them? They don't even know. I think we match up well vs the DUCKS, we played that playoff style, tight checking hard hitting, good D game most of the season, ducks didn't... Ducks tend to choke in the playoffs and when the going gets tough, guys like Perry and Getzlaf are known to become hotheads and get out of control doing more harm than good for the DUCKS. I dunno, head says Ducks win but.. Heart says Jets shock some people here and take it in 6 games. I dunno, this is gonna be a good series and i'm gonna predict that the winner of this series goes to the western conference finals regardless of who wins between calgary and vancouver, If we win our next opponent would be the winner of the calgary/vancouver series. Get by the ducks and we could easily make it to the conference finals vs one of Minny St Louis or Chicago I'm guessing. Part of me thinks us and St Louis are destined to meet in these playoffs and the only way that happens is in the western conference finals.

White Out or Blue Job
The away jerseys are just nicer in my opinion. Whiteout has nothing to do with jersey color

Game 81 - Jets @ Avs
The Hawks are built on star power tho. Toews and Kane are gonna be making 10 11 million a year starting next season. Each. Hawks are in trouble with the cap big time

Game 81 - Jets @ Avs
Hawks are gonna be in Cap hell. They already are.

Game 81 - Jets @ Avs
I don't think the KINGS are as good as they were last year, there is a reason they missed the playoffs, it's not because of the last 3 games either, it's because the entire season they just weren't as good as 8 other teams in the west... Time catches up with some teams, Confidence might play a role but i would expect the kings to make some changes this summer, they can't go in to next season with Richards and that contract taking all that cap space.. there are some teams and the kings may be one of them who are tight against the cap and may have to shed significant amounts of salary just to actually be at the cap next year, Hawks are another, Bruins are one too, I believe the Flyers might be also.. Theres actually about 5 or 6 teams who are going to be in cap hell, they don't have much room to sign guys unless they dump some salary first really... This is gonna be an interesting off-season to say the least in the NHL. Penguins are another team who might have to make some changes... It's gonna be interesting for sure. Some of these teams have like 2 million in cap space and need to sign like 6 7 8 guys still for next season, The tides they are a changing a wee bit... Believe someone on here or elsewhere asked whats the likilhood that both the jets and flames get in and the kings and sharks don't... Moving forward, i'd say its more likely the Jets and Flames get in than the kings and sharks...

White Out or Blue Job
True North actually trademarked Whiteout in Canada... ARIZONA and whoever else, MIAMI heat for that matter can use it all they want, if someone else in Canada did it tho, They would have to pay True North.

Who starts who sits?
Myers/Toby is pair 1 and they were when Buff was healthy and not suspended If you want to get all techincal in terms of d pairings 1 2 and 3... Buff was playing with Pardy the last few games aka pair 3 No doubt about it It's gonna be Myers/Toby Trouba/Stuart Buff/Chiarot or Pardy <-- could see one guy play one game and the other the next even but personally i think a healthy chiarot gets in over a healthy pardy. Just my opinion but.. I think it makes more sense to play Chiarot than Pardy.. If you only gonna play pardy cuz he's good at penalty killing, I don't like it.. You play your 6 best d men and imo, those are Myers/Toby, Trouba/Stuart and Buff/Chiarot The easy way to avoid having to kill penalties is you don't take any and honestly from watching playoffs in the past, you gotta almost kill a guy to get a penalty, refs aren't gonna be calling chincy penalties anymore, it's gonna have to be blatant and obvious.

Jets Management
Nashville has been on somewhat of a downward spiral the last 20 games or so, not looking so good recently. I think that skews the votes for Laviolette, I think the media is pushing for Hartley but... Maurice and Vignault would also be good selections too. If the sens make it, does Dave Cameron get some consideration? Or IS half a season not enough?
-
Game 81 - Jets @ Avs
Amazing really... Last 3 games.. Jets took 5 of 6 points against St Louis, Minny and Colorado. Last 3 games for the Kings.. they went 1 for 6 points.. Vancouver,Edmonton,Calgary It is absolute insanity that with a win in the nothing game tomorrow, the jets could finish with 99 points and still be the 2nd wild card team. 99 friggin points and you are technically ranked 8th in the west? That's nuts. But would finish with more points than Calgary and possibly tied with Vancouver i think.

Game 82 - Flames @ Jets
Confirmed Hellebyuck is backing up hutch.

Who starts who sits?
Keep buff and Toby away from each other except on power plays and it's not like it's the first time Toby would be playing the ducks. His size is irrelevant
-
Who starts who sits?
Stuart will play guaranteed. Pardy might not. Toby Myers TROUBA STU BUFF CHIAROT Then again if Perreault injured longer than expected Buff may go forward

Pav is starting to lose, back to Hutch ...
You do realize Noel started the year tho right?You do realize you come off as a dink sometimes right? You should post your meaningless stats since Maurice took over..... Delete. Decided attacking the poster instead of the post is silly

Game 82 - Flames @ Jets
Pav sitting Saturday for sure. Connor probably dressing.

Game 82 - Flames @ Jets
Many guys will sit.

Pav is starting to lose, back to Hutch ...
If hutch starts Saturday. Pav finishes the season at 22 16 8. 920 Save % and a 2.26 gaa. Time to admit he had a Damn good season. Hutch was good at shootouts but struggled since finally being beat in one. Shootouts are now irrelevant tho thankfully

The Wild Card race aka hockey's Final Four
Ducks are vulnerable tho. Iffy goaltending. A few games or 2 would get it going. They could play buffalo and I'd be jacked watching it. PLAYOFFS! !! They probably don't care who they play.
