I really can't imagine that the Flyers will sneak in, they still have way too much ground to make up. They should sell and look to revamp their defense with the results and I could see them being a wildcard contender next season

e: Boston is doing worse than I thought but still...not sure their stumble and Philly's streak will result in Philly getting into the playoffs

Revamp the... defense? You can do that?

On a side note it is insanely fuckin' weird to me that the current wild card race has come down to Boston and Florida in the year of our lord 2015

So has hextall put anyone on the trade block yet or is he waiting for the Peter Laviolette Vengeance Train to come blowing through first

Ronald Jeffrey Hextall always plays his cards close to his chest, and likely feels that the team is good enough as is, and that trades are unnecessary for this team to pull itself into the playoff spot it rightfully belongs in

it's probably worse this year than most of the years it was supposed to be so bad because as fun as the islanders and lightning are, neither are all that convincing

and montreal is currently sitting at the top of the conference, which is a pretty harsh indictment.

That said, if my bad math is right, the east v west stats right now are 162-135-41 in favor of the east this season

e: amazing how there's no EASTERN DOMINANCE narrative

I don't know if your numbers are right, but that is a bad record and not dominant in any way. Every one of those 41 is an OT loss so that equates to "East has won 162 games and lost 176".

oh right, fuckin' OTL, goddammit nhl

what centers are even out there and available for the rangers to pursue at this point?

they're going to end up bringing in someone who is serviceable at faceoffs but is an anchor in all other facets, aren't they.

In the US maybe, but the next Canadian team to win the cup pretty much gets a license to print money for a decade or two.

Unfortunately, it will still be in canadian dollars
