The Sens seem to have righted their ship. They are solidly in 7th place and are in the mix for that #4 spot.

 

Washington, Winnipeg and Florida are in a three way battle for the SE Division. The team that wins will likely be the only SE representative in the 2012 playoffs.

 

The Canes have lost in regulation time only twice in their last 13 games, both times to the Islanders. This is the same team that swept the season series from the Bruins. Go figure.

 

If any of the bottom teams make a run at that 8th spot, I would expect it would likely be the Lightning. They have the NHL's premiere goal scorer and guys like St. Louis and Lecavalier who have been there before. If they could just get average goal-tending most nights they would be a shoe in.

Agree on everything but Tampa. I can't imagine a team that has already started selling, thus making themselves worse, will make a run. I wouldn't be shocked if Washington snuck in at #8, but that says way more about my opinion of the Leafs than the Caps.

[prolly should be in the trade rumer thread, but]

 

For Stafford, a bag of those "hint of lime" Tostitos

 

For Pommer, Gretzky in his prime and LA's next 4 first round picks.

 

two things:

 

1. for whatever sleep-addled reason, i thought i *was* in the rumor thread.

 

2. even if i had posted it there, it had been discussed for about 20 minutes before. dollar short, day late, wrong turn. story of my life. :)

Looked like a kicking motion with his nose.

 

Yep, and then he tried to cover it up by acting hurt - :D Perreault should get an Oscar nomination. ;)

Apparently Lecavalier is done for the season.

The biggest headcase on every NHL team: http://bleacherrepor...-every-nhl-team

 

Yep pretty crazy. Whew thes eguys are nuts. This is just another article in the Crosby - Ovechkin love fest. I mean who likes their sticks in order? What kind a crazy person talks to his Mother on a regular basis? Just Bonzo.

 

This was the first time I was on the Bleacher Report site and thanks to the link I now know never to go back there.

I'm betting it was a 30-page slideshow, too.

Yup, done by a guy with the last name DeLuca, hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

To sum it all up

Player 'X' is a headcase cause they play carelessly as a fighter and throw their body around

Player 'Y' is a headcase cause they are a goalie and are Quirky

Player 'Z' is a headcase cause they have superstitions

Crosby is a headcase cause he liks his sticks perfect and doesn't call his mom on gameday

Avery is a Headcase cause he is Avery
