So with the playoffs fast approaching, who do you guys have? I'm probably biased, since i'm from pittsburgh, but i'm loving the Penguins' chances. provided they stay healthy of course.

The Penguins look like world-beaters. Crosby, between these two injury plagued seasons, also has an astounding 91 points in 56 games. That's Gretzky-like, just imagine a full, healthy season.

I'm taking Philadelphia or St. Louis, since my Leafs suck too much. :P

If the Leafs lose tonight (in regulation), I'm pretty sure it means we are then officially eliminated.

On the bright side you don't have to play the Bruins anymore.

I remember back when we had a back-to-back with them, and split it the games. All the T.O media said "Oh, Buffalo is done, 12 points behind the Leafs?" Well, how wrong they were. Scrivens called up today. Carlyle said their goaltending situation will "different" tomorrow. Wouldn't expand. We shall see tomorrow. Wonder what it could be... Give Scrivens 3-4 starts here. He finished winning 5 of 6 and has a .927 SV% in AHL.

Here's to hoping for a deep AHL playoff run.

Chanting "LET'S GO BLUE JAYS" in the ACC was absolutely hilarious.

I can't f***ing believe they let Rynnäs hang out to dry like that in his first career start.

Don't tell the Islanders who just somehow absolutley dominated the Penguins in a Home and Home series.

True enough. That gives the Leafs position in the draft lottery though! (:

Ah, the usual "Lets play like the best team in hockey and ruin our draft pick" time of year. It almost goes hand in hand with missing the playoffs, minus the Seguin draft.

Couple of good tweets from @mirtle tonight, Globe and Mail writer.

"Prediction: Leafs miss out on fifth overall pick position by one point. Team in fifth wins lottery draft."

"Leafs still gain a much needed point at least. No, wait a minute, they didn't need that point at all."

Time to bounce the Shards! Last year after that embarrassing playoff collapse Shards fans said "dismantle your team you guys suck!" Well i hope after these next two games we can keep them out of the playoffs and say the same to them, rumor has it the team might be dismantled if they don't make it :lol:

Agreed. The Flyers-Pens rivalry will be like the Bruins-Habs rivalry of last season. Really violent clash (boy that Thomas vs. Price fight was awesome) before the end of the season, and then the two teams meet in the 1st round.

Fans are impatient, even I am. And that is another problem. If you listen to Steven Dangle, he sheds light on how this is in reality the first season that this is essentially "Burke's team", and has every right to get grilled for how bad it sunk in February. HOWEVER, a lot of fans are terribly blind with what he has accomplished, as the farm team Marlies clinched their division in the AHL, most of which are his signings.

Chill, we're 5th in the lottery, a loss to Montréal and an Islanders win on Saturday night means we're bumped up to 4th.

Also the Jays won. Here is a picture I made.

Well according to the NHL.com all the playoff spots are listed and secured. I would like to rest the thread title to NHL playoff discussion and a new poll perhaps. Let the predictions begin.

**** that. I need them to beat the living **** out of each other in 7 games and Philly needs to win since we have their number:) In other news, this league is a god damn joke that you can;t say what is on your mind without getting fined.
