Up (down) to 8th now but teams around them have games in hand around them.
I just want to be in the top 7 at this point. Please no further than that?!
I've given up on Edmonton. Calgary, Arizona, Vancouver, Columbus...these are the teams that we really need to win now.
I don't see the big difference between 6 and 8 at this point. I'll take the points and growth of the team.
This was a topic on WGR a few weeks ago, but it pretty much laughed at the people that thought meaningless wins at the end of a year has anything to do for growth/morality for the future. A team like Columbus was on fire at the end of last year and started this year like 0-10. Watching a guy like Larsson turn it on at the end of year AGAIN, does nothing for me and scares me this team will keep him in their future based on him producing now. This is what the guy does. He sucks for the first 60 games and then scores a couple when the season is already over.

A nice winning end-of-season might not carry over to next season, or mean anything in terms of development, but it has proven to do wonders for the mental health of us fans going into the offseason
Chychrun is closer to Ekblad in development, Juolevi is closer to Maatta, if we're using comparables.
Chychrun on a third pairing is the right development for him. Joulevi should go back to London.
Tonight is a big scoreboard watching night with the Sabres being the only team currently in the bottom 9 that is off.
Carolina is doing really well in breaking Hanifin in IMO.
Vancouver is sneakily tanking big time. They will draft #1 or #2.
Has the League canceled the lottery for the 1st 3 picks?
