Nothing makes me happier than seeing Dallas lose. These next 10 games are gonna be crucial for every team. Looking forward to some intense hockey.

Me too only because I still remember the days they were great and boring defensively and always knocked the Avs out late in the playoffs. It looks like any team, but Anehiem will take that division. One of the most interesting divisions to watch right now.

Well Hartnell was the one getting his face rubbed in the ice, but this is NHL so I wouldn't be surprised if they suspend him anyway haha.

NHL.com does a feature on "if the playoffs started today..." every once in a while, and honestly the Dallas matchup always seems boring to me no matter who they play. They have a decent fanbase considering where they are located, and I want them to succeed, but I too just can't get excited about watching that team play.

Phoenix is now doing shitty. Out of the playoff picture currently. They followed up an almost perfect February with a so far very bad March.

Ouch! My playoff beard is now over 6 months old and the Sabres are still right in the mix. It was a big mistake to start the beard so early, I think I have a bird nesting in it now, and there's still potentially months to go before I can shave it off....

Very great dedication to that beard father Bong Lover. The race is so tight in both conferences your will as savior might help them into a great run to the playoffs.

Here with my Avs update.

Semyon Varlymov is seemingly carrying the Avalanche through games. He has to be one of the players of the month if he keeps it up. Only allowing one goal again tonight in a very tight game. The best thing about the Avs having a hot goaltender is obvious as this is what will give them a chance at the playoffs.

It will still be a fight to the end in all leagues as the East has no clear leader with both the Rangers and Penguins dominating. I still feel Pittsburgh will pull it off in the end.

The same could be said of the West, but I have a hard time seeing the Canucks beat out St. Louis for the top.

If the playoffs began today it would be Vancouver and Colorado which sounds fun as they are division rivals even if it is less than it used to be. Though the sisters have dominated the Avs most of the season and I could not see the Avs winning it.

Toronto is dropping big time, oh man it is a shame after such a strong start.

The Blackhawks are playing well again. I hope that it lasts.

Ha! It doesn't look like the Canucks are going to get that President's Trophy now, does it?

It could still happen. They play Colorado tonight so that should be interesting.
