Ironically, I can easily predict now that if/when the Leafs make the playoffs, Babcock will win the Jack Adams.

Anyone else consider the stadium series game?

 

[Shoalzie]

I completely forgot they were in another one this year. It should be pretty cool. All though the Wings are repeats...the Avs are a new team in the outdoor games.

Of course.

The Jack Adams trophy should really be named the "Team that was crap last year but made the playoffs this year" trophy.

Colorado is not a rivalry anymore. NHL needs to stop shoving this down peoples throats

red wings have 17 b2b games, tied for most in the league with PIT and NYR. 14 of those are against teams that didn't play the day before, which is league high.

Im always thinking "this will be the hardest year to make the playoffs" But now it looks like its official.

New coaching staff.. And those back to back games. All coming in place

Tons of injuries this year confirmed

We do get the Sabres and Sens 5 times each though.

But Sabres are gonna be a playoff team now cause of Eichel. And the Sens because they have Hammond


God, I could run Ottawa better then those guys. Hammond is nothing special.

No you couldn't they have a internal cap as per there management. They are one of the few teams in the league playing with a lesser amount of money to spend.

Last season we had one of the best schedules in regards to b2b's. Must be that?

Hmmm I wonder why, This is a real tricky question.

If I recall correctly, the most recent season was the exact opposite -- the Wings had what was considered one of the better schedules in the league. And I got the awful impression that even though they were rested, it was something of a momentum-killer.

So maybe it's not such a bad thing? I dunno. That's my glass-half-full take on it.

No one is left. Detroit won the war with the final nail being humiliating Roy in the WCF. I don't even hate Colorado anymore.
