Just post that Winnipeg and Lightning are up; maybe that will reverse things or maybe not...lol.
I wouldn't wish that on my most bitter rival either but just thought karma is a bitch when all the Jet's fans would whine to us about us winning because of their injury filled team. Now they have a reason to whine w/ their top scorer being out. To me though it didn't look too bad. Think he will be out for a few or even several games though but don't think it's something he will be out for months w/.

Lightning up now w/ 3 minutes left. Doubt Toronto will come back. Good teams just find a way to win so it's not much of a surprise. Before their games started I would have had Winnipeg and Lightning winning anyways. The surprise would have been if Toronto or LA won, which would have been a pleasant surprise. If anybody has a better chance at coming up w/ a surprise win though I would put it on LA as they just seem to be clinch at winning games when you think they are out (just look at the Minny game) and w/ Laine out that helps them out even more. Still think Winnipeg will come out on top though.

Jets fans are hardly unique in this regard. I mean, Pittsburgh only won the Cup last year due to our injuries (and the refs). Fan coping mechanisms 101.
Surprised if Laine isn't back quickly, that would be the one loss they really couldn't afford.

Welp no help from LA or Toronto and our schedule just gets tougher from here. Oh well.

Outside of Colorado, not a lot of inspiring, or desperate, hockey from a lot of the teams around the bubble. Dallas, Calgary and St. Louis obviously, but Minnesota hasn't looked all that great nor have the Ducks or Kings.

Dang... Cbus goes from dead in the water three weeks ago to as hot as we are... now with a shot at home ice for round 1. Would love to see them send Pittsburgh home early...
Devils look like they are going to imitate Dallas and crash right on out after sitting in the 3 spot for much of the year...
Really want Florida to make it and draw Tampa in round 1....

But who is going to facilitate the trade of our RHS Swedes for mediocre Flames garbage?
Funny to see Sharks fan popping off in that thread about them being contenders, didn't we just kick their ass a while back?

Hey! You suck!
Our season and team is all luck remember? I'm sure they had half the team out or something
Anyone else find it weird that you're just as nervous about round 1 this year as last? I just assume the worst and am actually more concerned about rounds 1 & 2 than 3.
Round 1 = 8 seed trying to knock out the 1. Gotta get shifted to playoff mode immediately which can be a risk. If Anaheim, you know they want to take us down so definitely can't look past them.
Round 2 = Likely Winnipeg. No need to discuss.
Round 3 = Someone I would be less concerned with than Winnipeg.
Round 4 = Made the SCF again, who cares!

after the PHO debacle years ago they all worry me (well actually from about 20 years before that). anyone that doesn't think we could lose to anyone in the first round really doesn't get hockey.

You would hope that after last season the players would be fully aware that anything can happen.

Was in the strange position of rooting for the Blues last night to keep Boston behind in the PT race. Am pleased that Chicago is eliminated from the playoffs. Went from winning the division to the trash heap. I like to think that we started them on the downfall in the first round last year. That and seeing a 1/2 full or less house in Detroit does my heart good.
