Todd Maclellan could show up behind the bench anytime.

Think Randy is done this week.

Well common Dallas, do your thing. The Oilers are going to need some miracles.

Why can't these clowns put together an 8 game heater.

BTW, the hell did Edler to himself?
It was weird. He stick and hands got caught up into a Flyer in front of him. He falls down and falls onto his face and right leg and had no hands to brace himself...

Ugly

Guess they won't bother asking him to leave in a trade anymore..

That made me cringe just reading your post. I don't wish that on anyone.

Only about 6 more wins in a row to get back in a playoff spot.
Credit where credit is due.

Jan 13th PHI was dead last in the league with 38 pts, 15 pts from WC2.
Feb 05 they are 19th in the league, 11 pts up on last place, and 5 pts from WC2.

That is a big jump in a short time and it is what a good win streak can do for a team.

They have gained 14 pts on Columbus, 12 pts on Buffalo and 9 pts on Carolina over the last 8 GP.

Every team has hot and cold streaks. It's cool I suppose but not likely to last.

No no, of course it won't last. I thought you were underselling what a win streak can do for a team in the standings.

I'd be amazed in Philly kept it up, I don't think it is a good team tbh (I know, glass house, but still).

It can do a lot but only if you maintain a good pace. Buffalo won 10 in a row earlier this year and they're not in a playoff spot now.

Conversely the Oilers were in a playoff spot then lost 14 of their next 19 games...

Is this similar to us once guys figured out how to play under Hitch? Gordon's system finally starting to make sense to the guys

No idea, I don't follow them any more than the occasional glance when they play teams I enjoy watching. What I have seen this year (limited viewings) has been pretty bad. I did not even know they changed coach.

Leafs avoid the max term offer sheet from Az and overpay Nostrils big time for only 5 years. Love the Leafs hype machine driving his price up. Marner and Kapanen awaiting their offer sheets now.
