(Spoilers) The thread where CALIFORNIA LOOOOVE~!

Reimer stood on his head, too. Made 31 saves in 2 periods of play.

I hope Bernier is back soon though. I was confused when he didn't come out the 2nd.

I only want Bernier back when he is 100% healthy. Can't risk aggravating anything prior to the playoffs.

The nucks team bus broke down because OBV OBV OBV OBV OBV.

luongo was in charge of tire pressure.

[Hewey]

And.............. Neal's out indefinitely out with a concussion. God damn, can't Pittsburgh stay healthy for any period of time? Hopefully he's back by the playoffs, but god damn, this season.

[Ruki]

Really glad I traded him away in two leagues

[SeanDMan]

Huge upset, massive win for Yaroslavl.

[Plubby]

My only regret is that I have but one like to give this.

[Ruki]

Leafs lose a must win game. Sigh.

I wouldn't worry too much, you guys still hold a wildcard spot with everyone else at least four points behind. I just don't like that if Toronto stays in their position it would mean a playoff series against Pittsburgh, and that one would make me nervous.

Phil Kessel vs postseason Fleury is something i'd pay cash money to see.

Toronto/Pittsburgh is pretty ideal for Toronto to make a deep run. Avoid Boston until Round 3, meaning they could get upset, and they would get a comparatively easy second round matchup against a Metro team, rather than Montreal/Tampa. Columbus and Detroit both have games in hand though, dropping to the bottom Wild Card wouldn't be great, and they could still miss the playoffs if they don't put some wins together. 12 points in 12 games would probably be enough though.

Postseason Fleury is the worst possible Fleury......................

And it's really going to be all on Fleury this year. I would feel a whole lot better with Vokoun backing him up, but there doesn't seem to be enough time for Vokoun to play this season, and Zatkoff has been good, but he needs way more games against tougher teams to see how he'll handle it. I do worry about playing someone like Montreal or Toronto in the first, but I think Pittsburgh could pull it off.

Though, it is still way too early to be guessing on who we'll be playing, there's still teams like Washington and Detroit who could probably end up making the playoffs, and someone like New York and Philly could drop to the wildcard spots, so lets see.

I think someone said the Leafs need to go 5-6-2 in their last few games to likely make the playoffs. I personally hope we do better >_<

Also! Carl Gunnerson replied to one of my tweets! I am pretty sure he thinks I am a strange person.

No! I'm really excited to play Pittsburgh now. No passing Montreal and Tampa.

Screw that, I want Toronto vs Montreal in the first so one of them most likely get Boston in the second, and hopefully eliminates them, or gives them a really tough time on the way to the conference finals against Pittsburgh

Don't bet on it. Flyers are on absolute fire, with Giroux, Coutourier and Berube making cases for postseason awards. They're coming together at the right time, and have 2 wins against the Pens this past weekend (at one point outscoring them 7-0 over 4 or 5 periods or something like that), and a big OT win against the Blackhawks last night. I think we have the Leafs tomorrow night, but I'm pumped to see them play the Blues this weekend, arguably the two hottest teams in hockey.

Giroux is a monster.

True, but Philly's gonna have some tough teams to play in the next few weeks. Personally, I want Pens v Flyers at some point in the playoffs.

[SeanDMan]

giroux is a goddamned ginged cunt, fuck him.

[Ruki]

I want Montreal in the first round.

You know, assuming we get to the first round.................Stamkos just got a natural hattrick, by the way

[Plubby]

Stamkos vs postseason Fleury is also something I would pay cash money to see.
