    Shitload of games this week. Specifically, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

    Dallas is the only team this week that has 2 games. All other teams play 3 or 4 games.

    gg on tonight with Boston @ Pittsburgh.

    "1-line team" Florida has the shittiest schedule this week. At home against Washington tonight and then on the road the rest of the week in Boston, Buffalo, and NYR, 3 out of 4 days. gl with that.

    edit: Thread title should be 12/5 - 12/11.

    A lot of games but not many "good games" save a few. This week could shake up the standings a bit though.

    There are only 3 good games this week

    Toronto vs New York Rangers
    Toronto vs New Jersey
    Toronto vs Washington

    thats about it

    On a separate note.

    Mr. Blonde please get all your Flyers fans friends to start voting for Claude Giroux to start the all star game. Guy is in like 8th place. should be up there with Kessel and Crosby. I've been voting as much as I can. (gotta knock off alfredson)

    Looking forward to many of the games this week.

    Pitt/Boston, Pitt/Philly- My homer picks but should be great hockey.

    Rangers/Leafs
    Wild/Sharks- What the hell has been going on with Minn? They look very good.
    Philly/Buffalo- Really enjoy watching these teams play each other
    Wash/Toronto
    Hawks/Sharks

    I might have missed a few I just glanced real quick. Should be a great week of games.

    I meant it as he should have as many votes as those two guys. Crosby is obv going to finish with the most votes, he probably would have even if he didnt play. Kessel is currently leading and for once a Leaf actually deserves to be there. And the next one that should be there is Giroux

    in library, can't watch, leafs have a bad habit of outplaying the other team and losing, and they seem to do the opposite of that a lot too.

    Seriously, Lupul is in boss mode tonight.

    Always remembered him as above average offensively with the Flyers but never like this.

    Dayum Phaneuf just ran over Sauer. Perfectly clean too.

    Ran over doesnt do it justice. He truck sticked him.

    Seriously awful high stick there by Macarthur who had a good game otherwise.

    GG Leafs, thought we were going to tie it up with the chances we had, but you guys deserved the win.

    Add another clip to Don Cherry's collection of why the NHL should have no-touch icing. I hope Del Zotto is ok.

    That hit by Dion was huge, exact same spot on the ice as the Tucker-Kapanen hit.

    TBH it might be a good thing to be shorthanded there: 6 on 4 with free icing or 6 on 5 without free icing

    My feed of LTV on firstrowsports decides to shut down with 30 seconds to go in the game. Glad the Rangers didnt tie it up.

    o/u on how long before the two West conferences start complaining that it is harder to get into the playoffs cause there are more teams in their conferance?

    1 year? maybe 2?

    that Blackhawks game was a great one to watch. Can't believe Hossa shot it right into Yandle on that open net. Already looking forward to what next seasons playoffs will be like but will miss the WCF 1st rd matchups.

    So if PHX moves to QC what do you think will happen?

    That Hawks-Yotes game felt like a playoff game, but maybe that's just cuz I was invested in it. I like the realignment mostly becuz u get every team in the league home and away which is awesome for the league and for fans. Some brutal hits on star players tonight if anyone missed that montage on Versus. Crosby took knee to knee contact from his own teammate, Malkin got absolutely crushed on a check, Ovy took a slapper to the face, and a couple Rangers got decked.

    They'll move into the Montreal division. If they stay put and balance is desired, they said Detroit or Columbus could easily move into one of the 7 team divisions.
