Wild have cooled a bit after winning what seemed like every game they played. We all know what the deal is with the Hawks: wins are required to keep pace for any potential home ice in the first round.

LET'S GO HAWKS!

Would be a fantastic night if we could win this one, and the jets beat the Blues in regulation.

"Coach Q we heard Brad Richards was decapitated last night"

"Yeah he got da Upper Body injury, it'll be a few days"

"Till he is back on the ice coach? What?"

"Nah till we bury him.... his corpse is gonna pair up with Rozi on D till then.... hopefully give Rozi a boost"

Almost the old Norris.

Almost the old Norris.

I wish they'd bring back the old division/conference names.

Duuuuuude you are such an old schooler stuck in the old way of thinking about hockey. Corsi ratings say the current conferences and divisions are better and easier to understand.

 

[Popinski Soda]

Wow, they have a corsi for everything nowadays...

 

[ClydeLee]

I do love current divisions, like the "Atlantic" division where only Florida and Boston are actually on the damn Atlantic Ocean. Most of the teams aren't even mildly close to it. Detroit? Ottawa? Buffalo... uhuh right.

I actually liked the Metropolitan division to break up the naming monotony in leagues these days but the split team choices is just shameful.

All that matters tonight is the the Rangers can clinch the pointless dumb President's trophy with a win!

LETS GO RANGERS!!!!
