Funny how the Toronto media keeps asking "Can the fanbase handle a tank/rebuild?" And then it devours itself after each loss.
Cam Talbot gets the start in Carolina tomorrow. AV wouldn't say who gets the start against the Ducks on Sunday.
Would be quite the rude awakening for Skapski to go from only playing against the last place team in the NHL to playing against the first place team in the NHL.
Henrik Lundqvist will not travel with the team (what with the newborn baby and all).

Cool graph I saw about how PDO works:
The horizontal axis is games played. Basically it shows that as you play a full season, the boundaries of what PDO is statistically possible collapse to within the range of 97.2 - 102.8 (3 standard deviations). Anything beyond that over the course of a whole season is an extreme outlier and virtually never happens.
I looked at all seasons since 2010-2011 and found that no team has exceeded 102.8 in an 82 game season (fyi Toronto was 103.0 (!) in the lockout-shortened season).
Now here's the crazy thing: no team has been less than 97.2 in any 82 game season EXCEPT 2014-2015 where THREE are (!) -- so far, that is, with 11 or so games left.
2014-2015 Arizona - 96.6
2014-2015 Edmonton - 97.0
2014-2015 Carolina - 97.1
Just shows how crazy this season has been.

maybe detroit loses a few games and tampa has to face Ottawa. Wouldn't that be nice?
this is a close race for east wild card.
I just wanna face Boston First Round.. please
Berra to stand on his head, Ducks go up 1, we claw back and win it 2-1 (in overtime)

No it would suck really badly and I would completely lose it if Ottawa passes us and knocks us out, however it's probably gonna happen.
This last stretch is becoming way to nerve racking with how we have been playing, we should have a little bit more cushion but this team can't get it's act together, lost 5 out of our last 7.

I wouldn't mind playing Winnipeg in round one. That would be a fun series.

What a stinker last night by the Canucks. Needless to say Saturday is a must-win but it's LA so it's more like a will-lose.
At this point you might as well trade him for the cap space.

Not gonna lie, I love the Quacks, but I would pick the Jets to win that series
Jets will have their hands full just making the playoffs though
Suby pls

Anyone have a gif of these?
We shall see! I think the Avs are due for a win. I don't think the Ducks have lost to the Avs since the first game last season.

Seguin would never have done this.

Agreed. it would also mean the Jets can avoid the central division until the conference finals.

As fucked as this season has been I'm pretty happy with the fact that the guys haven't quit.
Would fucking love the Canucks, Flames and Jets to make it while the Kings, Sharks and Stars are on the outside looking in
...but I doubt the Kings will be held out.

Seems like they only turned it on once the expectations were gone. That would frustrate me

What frustrates me the most is that it took so long for Roy to adjust the system that just murdered us in the first part of the season. That and injuries.

Leafs should cockblock Wildcard Teams

I've always had a soft spot for the Sharks but I think even Sharks fans want them to miss the playoffs so they can fire Wilson and improve the team.
If there's one team the Leafs are guaranteed to show up against, it's the Sens :S

I don't think that's possible these days. The Leafs roster is basically a handful of much-maligned NHLers and some AHL calibre journeymen.
They lost too many games that they should have had in the bank. Its gonna go down to the wire.
Is Holland still out? I mean he wouldn't make much difference, but while the centre depth is Bozak/Smith/Sill/Carrick... this team doesn't really have any business winning games against NHL competition.

Considering Toronto is playing like Edmonton when Eakins was still there, I don't think you have anything to worry about.
Worse tbh. Closer to Buffalo atm.
also:
Man, how great would it be if Jagr led them into the playoffs?

Hurray!
Wow Jagr seems to be a Perfect fit for Florida. He seems like an awesome dude. Dude still kicks ass no matter how old he is.Worse tbh. Closer to Buffalo atm.

Battlefront 2 on PSP was pretty awesome back in the day. Might not be a bad pickup for my Vita at that price.
