Another pair of alarmingly noncompetitive road games by the Islanders. Their spot in the metro top 3 feels up for grabs for any team that can get it together and run a streak of 5 games.

Varlamov may as well have been the #1 star of this game despite being the losing goaltender. Tripled in shots, and the only goal he gave up was on a turnover that may as well have been right in front of his net.

As pathetic as the Leafs are, the Panthers are even worse.

Honestly I think Toronto is safe at this point. Nobody else in that division is capable of putting together a string of enough wins to threaten them.

Oh this is easy - their road trip is at best going to be 2-3, meaning they'll maybe sputter out a win streak into the trade deadline that puts them within a few points of the playoffs. That'll convince Bowman not to sell on Lehner, Gustaffson, whoever, then after the deadline the Blackhawks will go on a four game losing streak that effectively torpedoes their season.

They did this act last season too. Few games where maaaaybe they might pull it together, only to crap their pants. But hey, at least they put up 8 goals on the Flames that one time!

Wow...Dino and I really are competing for the cynical depressive trophy. I knew that was joked about this week but wow. Itis real.

Still doesn't change the fact you have 3 cups in 10 years, AND the Hawks leapfrogged the Wild in the lottery last year....I am still bitter.

Hey, I know that Blackhawks fans have it much better than most, so most of my Hawks related ranting has an unspoken "Yes, it could be worse, BUT" attached to it. I'm mostly annoyed by their inability to pick a lane.

After todays loss, I decided to run the draft lottery simulator 10 times to make me feel better about the Wings. Ended up with then picking first 0 times, picking second 1 time, and picking third 0 times.

Thats it, the season is just cursed. Nothing can go right.

Oh good klefbom is dead now for a few weeks.

Kuemper is still dead.

Gallagher is game time decision which for him means out. Kuznetsov is kinda dead.

I had to completely drop Vladimir Tarasenko & dougie Hamilton earlier in the season.

You know it's a sad state of affairs when Crosby is healthy yet half your team is dead. I also only have 1 drop left this season so I'm really not wanting to make any changes since we are close to the playoffs

Canadiens blow a 3-1 lead to the Red Wings, and the Wings won every game in the series this year. Canadiens capped off this game by Joel Armia taking a dumb penalty away from the play with just over two minutes left.

Blackhawks get a 4 spot put on them in the third by the Rangers.

On the bright side, at least this should (emphasis on the word should) put them in Sell Mode.

They are if you make any reasonable attempt at all to account for games in hand (they're one point behind Columbus with three fewer games played).

How was it? (other than being "good stuff")

I was in Vegas during their first pre-season but opted not to attend, the price for a pre-season game seemed a bit high, granted they were an expansion team but still. Then I was also there this fall but didn't fit it in the schedule. The only game I could've done was vs. Boston, eh....

Maybe next time I visit!

Galchenyuk playing for a contract I see. Racking up points the past couple games.

*then sees Draisaitl has 95-100 points and cries*

Numbers that big are a foreign concept to me.

Don't forget what happened with Ottawa in the following season!

...they took the Sabres with peak Hasek to 7 games in the first round

BUT THEN THE FOLLOWING SEASON was the great first round upset over the Devils, good times.

Also how were the 92-93 Sharks or Sens not the earliest in that tally, wow.

Edit: ok forgot Hasek was injured partway through that series, makes more sense... also I guess peak Hasek was really a couple more seasons after that too. LOOK NEXT SEASON'S GOING TO BE BETTER YOU'LL SEE!

The Rangers have put themselves into a nearly identical position that the Blackhawks are in... They're only 4 points out, but they're probably just not good enough to make it. They should probably also sell a little bit as well for the push that will start next year. They look to have a pretty viable window upcoming.

None of the top metro teams have been playing all that well lately, but I don't think anyone is going to be good enough to take spots from them. I feel like we have our four teams that will make it inhabiting the top 4 spots already, and the 2nd wildcard is up for grabs for a group of teams that are simply more heavily flawed. The Rangers are currently playing the best out of that group, but their remaining schedule puts them against almost all playoff teams; thrice against the Penguins for example. They could be a scary 8 seed if they could find their way in.
