The Flames series didn't feel that bad, All six games looked like we could win if I remember correctly. Barker was on fire that series.

Flames came out and almost won game 1 at the UC. They beat the shit out of the Hawks/Physically. They throttled us in Calgary both 2 and 4. They hit in that series so much it cost them in the long run as the Hawks started burning them for it.

Anybody wishing for the Hawks to stay at the 6 seed remember this. In the history of expansion, 1967 to present day, no 6-8 seed has ever won the Cup.

yeah, and when that happened I just knew we were going to win the series (though looking back, I was mostly just assumptive because we hadn't been in the playoffs for so long lol)

However they have gone to the finals. Edmonton vs Carolina. The Oil were 8th seed

And that's the only one in 45 years. That gives confidence. Although had Theodore not been hurt in the WCF's the Oilers probably win that Cup.

History is made to be changed, It all depends on whos hot coming in, sometimes its the way the puck bounces. I am one that wants the 6th seed. But it also can come back and haunt us. So who knows. I just want a healthy squad coming in, and if we can get a healthy JT and rested Keith it could be a great run.

Where the Flyers not 8th seed also?

Nope. They were the 7th.



On an intresting, and trivial aside, the playoff bracket of 2010 was unique as far as I can tell: the East and west up until the final PERFECTLY mirrored each other:



1st round W: 1 def. 8, 2 def. 7, 3 def. 6, 5 def. 4. 1st round E: 8 Def. 1, 7 Def. 2 6 Def. 3, 4 Def. 5.



2nd round W: 1 Def. 5, 2 Def. 3. 2nd round E: 4 def. 8, 7 def. 6. In the west the top teams won, in the east the bottom teams won this round.



3rd round W: 2 def. 1. 3rd round E: 7 def. 8. n the west the bottom team won and in the east the top team won.

I wouldn't. That means I pay the Hawks 2,500 bucks, then have to come up with 2.700 or so within a month to pay for next season.

Well it's easier to say when you aren't paying for the product. STH's take the brunt. Not knocking anyone that's just the way it is.



I'd rather lose in the first round than in the Finals. Since I have to pay for the "better" team next year anyway.





and sure Acco History is meant to be broken. The Hawks were within an INCH of doing so last year, but they didn't and that's why it's rare.



in 47 years it's never been done. I'd say that's some pretty fucked odds.

I wouldn't say 47 years, beacuse keep in mind the current seeding process is relitivly new. Most of our lives it was



1 vs 4

2 vs 3

1 vs 4

2 vs 3



divisional format.

79-80 but since expansion in 67 none have won.





Doesn't mean it can't happen, everyone who played the Lottery the other day had a chance to win as well.



Anyone claim that ticket?



And most of your life, but thanks for making me younger.

Hawks were the only team to pull the goalie in a playoff game and get the tying goal.
