Yeah, more defense would help too...

The Wild are officially Division Champs. 
Hopefully they won’t suck it up in the playoffs.

And with that, we take Vancouver down with us. 
Another great game from the Oilers. Despite the many downs of this past season, the Oilers made up for everything over the last 6 or so weeks. I couldn't be more proud of my team.
This organization has an amazing future ahead. I can't wait!

Detroit won the President's Cup and the Sharks lost. Maybe this is a good thing in the end. I do know one thing. Nabokov isn't starting on Sunday and he's going to get the rest going into the Postseason.
I'm looking forward to the changes - it should've happened last year. It's not just a matter of the players. I expect either Vigneault or Nonis or both are gone. I'd love to see Linden move into an assistant coach position with the team.
I'm rooting for Nashville and San Jose in the West, Ottawa and Washington(assuming they make it) in the East.
And I'm rooting for anyone who's playing Anaheim. No repeat! No repeat!
Hey, another San Jose Fan. At least I know one person is listening during the playoffs.
The Wild are officially Division Champs.
I stopped by the Xcel center today (shopping at the Hockey Lodge): I was kind of surprised to see some people already lining up for the tickets that go on sale Saturday.
The Wild are playing some of their best hockey of the season right now. Gaborik's been on a roll, so hopefully the Wild can keep it going.
The rest of the west doesn't really spark my enthusiasm. If Chicago were in it, I'd root for them. Barring that... go Habs. It would be fitting for Montréal to be the team who brings the cup back to Canada.
I don't expect Nonis or Vigneault will be packing for flights just yet, although with the difference in ownership since they were brought onboard, who knows? I'd only be truly surprised if Naslund and Morrison survive the summer, nor would I get too comfortable seeing the Sedins in town for much longer.
So long as they keep Kesler, Burrows, and Bieksa around, The Powers That Be™ can do what they like with the others (I consider Luongo to be a non-issue in terms of movement.) I would be disappointed to see Shannon and Raymond vanish, though, and I don't think Bourdon has gotten a fair enough shake just yet. They'd be crazy to trade Edler.
As bummed as I am about missing the playoffs, I'm nearly as stoked to see what happens in the offseason. Can't wait to see a fresh squad (wearing Johnny Canuck jerseys!) in October.

Bahahaha! Carolina, which has been in third place the entire season have played their last game and have directly gone from third to ninth.

LOL Owned.
Well, the Preds lost, which makes them out of the running for the 7th seed sweepstakes. That means it will be either the Avs or Flames. It it wrong to point out as a Sharks Fan that both teams scare me?
Well, my brother actually wanted the Preds to lose tonight so they would not play San Jose again for the third year. Anyway, I am just glad again that the Preds made it to the playoffs even though we will have to play the Red Wings.
That really sucks for Carolina. It illustrates how dumb the system is, though.
But it looks like Ottawa gets to play either the Habs or the Penguins, so I'm happy.

How is the system dumb?
It's the least convoluted of all the professional sports. Frankly, I think it's the best.
