Count me in the same camp as Ogre. Although, I could watch them for days because of how well they play their system.
****, we should do anything in our power to get either of those two.
I think I'd take the championships.
I can sort of agree with DyingAlive on this. What good are championships if you can't even be bothered to watch the playoff run because your team bores you to sleep each time you try and tune in?
For me, hockey is entertainment. Sure, winning is fun, but so is actually enjoying the 60 minutes of game play, regardless of result.
But IF it really is your team, does this bore you to tears? I have been a fan of some pretty spectacular winning teams and some pretty boring winning teams and of course winning in an exciting fashion always trumps winning in a boring fashion, but winning boringly still trumps losing well.
For me, yes. I got more enjoyment out of the X-Gen Pens than I did out of the MJ Pens at the beginning of last season. I'm sure part of that was due to expectations - as in, I expect a team with as much offensive firepower as the Pens have to actually play offense.

someone told me a few weeks ago Columbus would cool down and all they've done since is heat up more.
Disgusting behavior in the Devils-Canucks game. Hall blows up Larsen with what seemed like a clean hit, Larsen hits his head on the ice and is out cold, then several players on both teams are in such a hurry to start a scrum that they end up kicking the prone Larsen in the head with their skates. He ended up getting stretchered off.

Where's the common sense? Player is out cold, so it would seem obvious that you shouldn't start pushing and shoving right over where the guy is out cold.
The Habs have been skidding a bit and the Caps pulled out an OT win against Buffalo last night but lost their previous 3 before that. They both have games in hand but the Pens are gaining ground.
Somewhat related: the Metro is ridiculous this year. 4 teams currently in the top 10 of the league, 3 of those teams are in the top 5, and Philly is just outside the top 10 at number 12. I'd love to see someone make an argument that the Metro isn't the best division in hockey this season.
Overall in the East, Tampa has 30 points and is currently out of a playoff spot. They'd be 5th in the Western Conference.

My co-worker is trying to say that it was an elbow. I'm not seeing it.
