Hey guys&gals, yeah I'm back at it with another hockey post, haha! I just can't help myself. Being that the season is dwindling down before our eyes, I've got a few questions for yinz!

Bubble teams: Who makes the final cut? (East and West)

Will there be a "cinderella" team this year?

& who are your favorites to make it to the finals, & who wins it all?


If you have seen my hockey posts before, you know I'm an avid Pens fan, sooo I end this post with a LETS GO PENS! :tongue:

    Although the last few games have had a bad odour...I'm a Habs fan thru and thru. :drinker:

    GO HABS! Price, Cammy & Pk are my fav players.

    Even though we've been horrible, gotta stick with the Thrashers :)

    but if they dont make the cut as a bubble team, i'll have to go with the Bruins

    I bleed red. Huge flames fan. It's getting pretty tight at the bottom of the west though. They need to win the majority of their remaining games to have a shot at 7th or 8th. Big game on tuesday against the Ducks. GO FLAMES GO

    It doesn't look as though my beloved Leafs are going to make the dance in spite of a fairly decent late season push. I think you gotta like the Canucks and Flyers for the final, but this is the NHL so anything goes.

    HUGE Canucks fan, even though I live in London now I've always followed them in London since I left Vancouver 11 years ago.

    I'm REALLY hoping the Canucks keep up the good form and don't let their success so far go to their heads.

    Yeeeaaah, that's not looking so good right now. But at least we have a pretty solid 3rd string goalie with MacDonald.

    LET'S GO RED WINGS! 20th consecutive playoff appearance!

    The playoffs shall be interesting for the Pens to say the least. They are 4-13-6 (I think, don't quote me) against Eastern Conference "playoff" teams and 0-7 when playing them at home. Not to mention our powerplay is 3 for the last 59. :noway:

    Goaltending has been stellar but I wish the offense would pick it up a bit. & how about a regulation win? :laugh:

    Pens are definitely struggling to score. A goal less per game since 87 has been out. Defense has been stellar though, for the most part. PP is ridiculous!

    Yep, Vive les Canadiens! I hope CBC gets it right this year and actually broadcasts their games. Stuck in the boonies without cable or satellite....

    GO HABS!!! Born and raised in Montreal (now living in the depressing land of Ottawa Senators fans) and I'm pretty damn obsessed with our boys! I'm dedicated, no matter what.

    Fleury could definitely use some offensive help, but I still think we have a good chance to advance. Definitely not going to win it all unless Sid does come back. Gotta love the fight in the team though.
