 :-X Canucks have started a bandwagon with their recent hot play. The East is gonna fall hard, whichever Western team ends up in the final.

The West sucks.

You guys should be very pleased with the Blue Jacket's performance. They've exceeded all expectations.

Every day on the 1040 it swings back and forth. Agree on the East, they just can't compete with the West. Despite their record I don't see Boston in the final, will most likely be Detroit/New Jersey.

Canucks fans are among the worst. its either "blow it all up now and tank!" vrs "win today, fuck tomorrow!"

The Canucks are a bunch of assholes.  They're a western version of the Maple Leafs.  Sundin just confirms it.  Barring a meltdown they'll make the playoffs, but they're too worthless to advance.

It was about time. I think the fan base was getting disgruntled.

As well they should. But management finally went out and got Rick Nash some help. I really hope you guys make the playoffs this year, just not at the Canuck's expense of course.  ;D That Mason goalie of yours has really impressed, I wonder if he can keep it up for the big show and next season.

They ditched Leclaire, so he better deliver.

Hod.  The Sabres have been in free fall for too long now.  I think the plaoff window is about to shut on them.   On a side topic, what are your thoughts on Ovechkin's antics?  Personally, I like it.  I think.  I go between hating it and loving it, but at the moment I'm for them.

I think it's hillarious watching the sports media blasting him, but I don't really care.  It's no worse than riding the stick.  Since it was something of a milestone goal, it's not so bad, although it would get old if guys were doing this all the time.  If the opposing team didn't want to be disrespected, they shouldn't have let him come in 1-on-3 and then beat the goalie.

As for the Habs, their inability to play hard for a whole game, coupled with Price's sophomore slump are getting on my nerves, as is Calgary's determination to lose as much as possible.

Just as long as it doesn't become a soccer style homo ass grab, Ovechkin is alright.
