Just gotta do...

:slow clapping: for the the Wings to make it in the playoffs. In the years past, it's like some old fogeys limping into the playoff by muscle memory. This year? Look at all the new, young players (not to mention the snakebitten injuries). Babcocks deserves the coach of the year.

I'm just saying...

I've seen it argued that Babcock does. Couple that with ANOTHER Olympic Gold Medal that he's brought to Canada, you'd think he'd be a strong contender. Seems Roy is a shoe in though.

Man... the Blues look so off tonight. I'm afraid they'll get stomped in the playoff.

Bruins threw the game away in the last few minutes, some shocking plays. Least we got a point.

There's still the President's Cup race though!



Habs need to stop their skid - they looked tired and lazy last night losing to the Islanders of all teams... They play like that against the Bolts and they'll soon be joining the Loafs & Sens in the post-season golf tournament.

Also, Shanny is confirmed as the new President of Hockey Operations in Toronto!

And Oshie got clobbered in the head a vicious head shot by the Wild’s Mike Rupp...


Miller had an "off night" here... but, the Blues actually played pretty good. The Wild's journey man goalie was standing on his head (and Wild's defender were actually good this game).

That may be but Presidents cup is a big incentive plus to keep trying. Losing to a team like Winipeg like that leaves a lot to be desired.

Here's Rupp's hit on Oshie that got him a four-day suspension




Oshie should've kept his head up, and Rupp has a couple inches on Oshie...but that's still a gnarly hit. Not too pleased.

There could be one less Lightning player at the playoffs this year. What an idiot, great example...

Ha, you're not lying. I was honestly surprised with that ruling. Well, that can you do?

In true, "Toronto sucks" fashion, last night some fan through a Maple Leafs jersey onto the ice and Hockey Night in Canada tweeted out a vine of it. Senators replied with the link to their team shop .

On to the final game of the season. It's been bittersweet, especially not making the playoffs this year :(

On a five game win streak, the hottest team going into the post season are the Ottawa Senators.

We'll wake you up when it's over.

Well... the Blues have some good news.

It looks like we may actually get some of our injured players back (Morrow, Petro, and Oshie at least).

Maybe we actually have a fighting chance!

Zetterberg is saying the latest he'll be back is Round 2, so whoever we got after Boston, watch out.
