Perry will make it in but whether it takes him 3 years or 30, who knows.

ThinkTank posted:Corey Perry and Taylor Hall have to be serious HHOF considerations because aside from Jose Theodore and a couple guys from the 50s they'd be the only Hart trophy winners not in the hall. Just one of the many reasons it was so incredibly stupid they won and why it shouldn't be an award for good players on mediocre teams that make the playoffs. For borderline guys who needed their MVP to get in, maybe Lindros? He still had to wait and he definitely seems like a tier above Perry.

Yeah, because when your team wins one playoff round in 6 years (soon to be 7) you need to lock up that GM for a long, long time.

I just remembered that Andreas Athanasiou scored a goal and an assist in his first game after being traded from the Red Wings last year, then didn't get another point the rest of the year. Ominous...

 This looks pretty much set for the playoffs, unless Boston goes on a losing streak and lets the Rangers sneak in at the last second. With Boston still having two games in hand, that seems doubtful though. The East is gonna be a bloodbath once the playoffs start and whomever emerges to round 3 is going to have the scars to prove it. There’s talk of a condensed first round that might have some back to backs, so having two starting quality goalies may be the key to advancing.

Wouldn’t a condensed first round put them further ahead of the North division? I’d hope they use that to catch up the divisions to nearly the same schedule with the disruption.

Can we start an athlete exchange program where hockey players spend six months with an NFL player so they can develop a personality? NBA players would be a good partner too. Also I'd like to see an average NFL linesman on ice skates.

Boston has almost a third of their remaining games against Buffalo (5 of 16) plus two against the Devils. There are no free wins in the NHL obviously but on paper that should be a boost for them down the stretch. There's a mini series where they host the Rangers twice which might end up being big games if the Rangers can keep it up and the Bruins are just ok. I figured the condensed rounds would likely only affect the Canadian teams so that they can catch up to wherever the American teams are at since they'll probably be starting later.

Boston has 5 games remaining against Buffalo and then 2 against everyone else (3 against Isles) and have completed their season series against the Flyers. Missing for them would be exceptionally impressive. Rangers have 2 to 3 games left with everyone except Pittsburgh with that season series completed. Kind of a toss up with who has the 'easiest' schedule...I think Pittsburgh might. Only 4 games remaining against the other playoff teams. Then probably the Isles with 6 though less Buffalo games left so probably tied with Boston. Caps have 7 against the other top 3 in the div and the least games against Buffalo. That said I'm not sure who I would want to play in the first round as it is. Caps upgraded and have decent scoring depth in a bunch of former Pens. Boston obviously added Hall to their top 6 and if that gives them even a modicum of scoring balance they are going to be good. Palmieri/Zajak are adds for the Isles, but I think that gets them close to where they were when fully healthy. The Pens....I have no idea what you're going to get. Some nights they put it all together and look like the team that went back to back. Other nights they get .800 goaltending and have zone breakdowns that would make you think of Philly or Buffalo. Even with full health I don't know what to make of the forward core.  anyone can win the div and it's really really hard to pick who survives.

Last two games of the season for the Rangers are Boston. Could be pretty interesting if the Rangers can keep picking up points, but Boston has to drop a few.

Ben Bishop and Alexander Radulov are done for the season. Ben Bishop played two(?) games in the bubble, then didn't play at all this season. Radulov is getting surgery, he's played a handful of games this season.

This neck injury looked like it was sustained in his last game of the season mar 7th against NYI. It would be nice to know if he had been nursing other injuries all season.

Completely unrelated but I was looking at the Capitals roster and saw Lars Eller is 31. I've been thinking of him as an old guy for years and he's the same fuckin age as me.
