True. But I don’t think the Oilers will be as bad as the Flyers were last year. And the Central won’t be as bad as the Southeast was last year, either. Those four teams benefitted from those two factors.

P.S. – Pittsburgh, Rangers, Islanders and New Jersey all made the playoffs last year – so four playoff teams from one division isn’t as impossible as it seems…

I’m so controveresial…Mike is jealous that I got two comments and he only got one.

You interpret my picks correctly…almost. I said the bottom seeds will come between Minnesota, St. Louis and LA. I agree, it will be tough for four Northwest teams to make it. We will see…

If I interpret your Western rankings correctly, you’re thinking 4 playoff teams out of the Northwest? With the Ducks and Blues the non-division winners joining the party. The Northwest is going to have to feast on all other teams for that to happen. And if that’s the case, any of those teams will feast on the Sharks come playoff time.

Poor, poor Carolina.

Cup champions one year, to also-rans the next, and now they fell off the NHL map!

Thank God for the 'edit' button. I just tacked 'em on at the end anyway. Nothing to see here.

Phoenix – If the Sharks lose one game to Phoenix, I will shoot myself.

Good hyperbole, but you know it will happen. Probably when Auld is in goal and Doan, Ballard, and Jovo are all hurt too, just to rub salt in it.
