Who will win?

Chicago Blackhawks 12 80.00%
 
Tampa Bay Lightning 3 20.00%
 
Total:15

If colorado doesn't win I will never cheer for them again. (Hawks clinch if hey win)

Ok, 1 week control? Im not too much into taking risks.



Blackhawks are the first team to clinch playoffs. Penguin are second.

Blackhawks are 2 games ahead of the 'guins and a game in hand. Looking like they will get the presidents trophy.

Don't jinx it. And yeah, week works for me. 

Also, much needed win for MN today before we started falling down the western standings. Glad to see Pominville getting on the board.

Jinx? If Blackhawks just get 50% left of the points they will have 72 points. They are playing against 5 teams that look like they will be missing the playoffs That means the Penguino's need to win 78% of their points. 7 wins out of 9 games and the Ducks need 83% 7 wins and a tie.

As for the bet to make it a little more even if the Hawks win in OT our bet will result in no winner. If Wild win in OT then you win.

I thought they already made it? That is what the talk show hosts on the radio were saying.

Emery does it again. Thank god for him!



They did. 1st team to clinch. They can clinch the division in as little as 2 more games too (If blues lose and hawks win then they clinch tomorrow) and the confrence and presidents trophy in 8 games. the presidents trophy is what I'm referring to which goes to the team with the best record during the regular season

That would be really cool! have they ever done that? Presidents Trophy?

so if they win just 8 more games total they have it?



They did over twenty years ago. when Chelios, Belfour and Roenick were on the team (all future hall of famers). They lost in the first round to Mike Midano's North Stars who went on to lose in the Stanley Cup Finals

They can win 8 games out of 10 and clinch it or the Ducks/Penguins can lose 8 games out of 9. Or if the hawks win 5 and the penguins/ducks lose 3



The last time that they won the President's Trophy things did not go well. I was hoping that the Sharks would win that trophy this season...
