They're doing a lot better than most other teams this year, they might not win the cup again this year, but there's always a chance that some team might bust out of nowhere and take the win from under our noses (which could be the Blackhawks ).. All the top teams are close in score, there's 11 points spread between 12th and 2nd, but Washington has a solid 14 points more than Dallas who's tied for second with St. Louis with 91 points.

This year's playoffs will be great for the US fans. With no Canadian teams in the lineup this year, Rogers is going to suffer a pretty big hit on ratings since they bought the rights for game broadcasting or something. Ottawa is the Canadian team with the most points right now, which is sad really..

I don't know if anyone saw it, but I followed the Tampa vs Toronto game last night... I'm actually embarrassed for the bolts, losing to the team in last place in the league.. I'm also pissed I lost that bet, oh well such is the game of luck
