Much Ado About Hockey

It's funny how much press the Western Conference playoff race is getting. Now that it's pretty much down to "Will it be Edmonton or Vancouver that gets the 8th spot", it really should be a moot point. I love my Canadian teams (ok, 5 of them) but whoever gets the 8th seed is going to be SMOKED by Detroit. Neither Edmonton or Vancouver are playing well at all, and Detroit has been on their biggest roll all year. It's not going to be pretty.

Once the regular season ends, I'll give my predictions for the first round matchups. Although I've pretty much already given one away.
