    3 point advantage games need to be eliminated

    BTW, The 1977 Montreal Canadiens finished 60-8-12, and that was before the NHL went to overtimes! There's a record that will never be broken.

    Is A First Round Exit Imminent?

    Except the last 3-4 years, the girl hasn't been hot. But those teams have talent and are well coached.

    3 point advantage games need to be eliminated

    Here's my problem with that. 3 on 3 is just like a shootout. A silly gimmick to manufacture an extra point. I mean, how often do you see a 3 on 3 in a real game situation? Hardly ever. Why would you have a system where a team that loses a 3 on 3 gets zero points? That would be cruel and absurd.

    % chance of making the playoffs

    96.2% seems a little high. Of course if we lose the next game and Ottawa wins, then those percentages wildly jump down by about 50%.
  5. Kenny can't seem to do anything right. Hopefully, Franzen will be back next week and will channel his 2008-2010 BEAST MODE playoff form. Long term? I don't see our season going another two weeks in any case, even with Cole and Abby. This defense is terrible as is the PK.

    3 point advantage games need to be eliminated

    Would be a nightmare for injuries and wear and tear. Pretty sure the players wouldn't want to play that many minutes extra during the season. If they do this, they'd need to shorten the season to 70 games (which owners would never allow because they'd lose revenue).

    3 point advantage games need to be eliminated

    It's not a bad proposal the more I think of it. I too like history, but the current system has jacked around with history already. This 3 point system might be the next best proposal from the pre-1999 system I've advocated.

    4/7 GDT : Carolina Hurricanes 2 at Red Wings 3

    Babcock has lost his mind. There is no reason for Miller and Glenfiddich to play those kind of minutes. Just bad coaching. Datsyuk was amazing last night. Boohoo. I won't shed a tear.

    4/7 GDT : Carolina Hurricanes 2 at Red Wings 3

    Seems like the fans of all four teams think they'll get in. Wings and Bruins fans think their team has a birthright to the playoffs and have too much experienced players not to make it. Pens fans think they'll get in because they have the best player in the world and always make the playoffs. Sens fans think they'll get in because they can't lose to anyone and are predestined to make it. Someone will be sorely disappointed.

    3 point advantage games need to be eliminated

    2 points for a win in either regulation or OT. No points for OT loss. No shootouts. 5 on 5 OT. I've been saying this for years and refuse to go back on it. I like the pre-1999 system, ties and all.

    Oh crap. Like he needs motivation to play well against us.

    What buzzsaw? The Rangers can't handle our team speed and the wonderful team defense that Kenny and Mike have assembled.

    And you're basing this off what? Certainly not our last 10 games. We barely won tonight against an AHL team. Why not? We have no chance of ever beating Price. I'd rather play the Rangers.

    You're right. You heard what the man said, everyone. Let's go back to hating Babcock.

    LOL. We could end up with 98 points and miss the playoffs.

    Watch Ottawa beat the Rangers by like 6 goals Thursday. LOL. They didn't need any help in that regard.

    Terrible result for us. The Pens can go burn in a fire of AIDS. We may need more than a point now.

    4/7 GDT : Carolina Hurricanes 2 at Red Wings 3

    Yeah, people here are overreacting. Probably because they haven't seen a regulation win in what feels like weeks. And it was a game where we barely hung on to beat one of the worst teams in the league.

    I blame Bettman for not sufficiently protecting his most prized team.

    I don't see us getting points in Montreal, so I hope Ottawa or someone else s***s before we hit the ice against Carolina.

    Be careful what you wish for. We might not get another point.

    Let's just say that if some sad tragedy was to befall this Pittsburgh team, I wouldn't shed any tears.

    Bring on Price *******!

    LOL at Datsyuk being a game time decision. He plays better blind and crippled than the rest of this roster.
