2015 NHL Hockey Playoff Talk
I'm starting it a bit early this year because the race is so damn tight. In fact I don't think it's ever been this tight of a playoff race. In past years any team with generaly over 90 points was pretty much in.
This year you need close to 100 points or there's no hope.
Sens -- probably the best story in the league, an incredible playoff run they've had. Christ I wish fans were tossing burgers on the ice back when I played the game. Still don't know if they're in but I'd kind of like to see them do it, if for no other reason than one of their best players (Stone) is from Winnipeg.
Rangers -- In my opinion the best team in the regular season. Called this over two months ago, they've always had more points than most (if not all) AND they always had a game or two in hand over most (if not all) other teams. Definitely a cup contenter.
Kings -- surprisingly it looks as though the defending Stanley Cup champions won't make it through to the post-season. Sad, but I take solace in the fact that my Jets had something to do with it. :D
Pens -- who would have thought they'd have such a sucky finish to their season?
Wild --- Does anyone really want to play the Wild (or the Jets if they make it) in the 1st round of the playoffs? Another incredible late-season run to nail a wildcard spot. The Dube!
Habs, Caps, Blues, Preds, Hawks, Ducks, all major contenders.
Who's your team?
