Around the NHL 2024 25

[Adam da bomb]

I pick the Flames first because the wild have legit game changers and they're getting healthy

But, flames are only winning because they are legit too. I can imagine wolf goaltending someone than Gus or Fleury.

3-0 Columbus over Washington so far, go Jackets!

Oh man if somehow Montreal collapsed

Make it 6....

Make it 6....

Yes it appears the caps are mailing in his one in. Lots of emotion in their season. Not sure letting the gas off is a good idea.

But a few teams are doing it.

Why risk injury?
Caps clinched 1st place give the kids or bottom 6 more playing time.

The way the Caps / Cbj are playing, you just might see Wilson do something stupid and get suspended.

If the Jets win tonight they win the division and are 5 ahead of the Caps will have a game in hand, Jets will have the upper hand for the Presidents Trophy and might be time for the Jets to rest a few players

They should be resting Ehlers. Need him for playoffs we can still finish #1 in div and league without him. Also give Helly rest.

I’d like to see the Jets clinch 1st place before resting players. Then guys like Ehlers and others should be rested. Likely what they’ll do.

 

[enuffidiotsalready]

Washington already accomplished all of their goals for the year, or so it would appear

 

[CorgisPer60]

lol
lmao even.

 

[bustamente]

Rangers should've made the playoffs with that roster, Laviolette with pay the price for missing them

Simply going to extra time tonight clinches the Central & the West for the Jets.

As for the Presidents Trophy, the Jets won't have a a game in hand, rather Washington will. Washington had a game in hand prior to todays loss. As of now each have played the same number of games, but yes a win over Chicago has the Jets at 114 pts & would be a single point away from the Presidents Trophy.

So a win tonight & any subsequent Capitals loss OR the Jets taking taking either of their final two games to OT will guarantee our boys first overall.

With how bad the Stars have looked and how good the jets looked without Ehlers I think they can take Chicago and reduce the chances of a freak accident hurting our playoff opportunity. I mean, Ehlers and Helly are the only players I am worried about wrapping in bubble wrap.

This is what happens when you rush players back to secure a playoff spot.

It's interesting we assumed Jets had a harder schedule than Stars and Caps to end it, yet, they just knocked off Stars and Blues.

Poor wording by me should of put who after the Caps, right about the tie though

Injuries during the season are bad enough, injuries near the end of the season especially to a top 4 D man is devastating.

It was a fact that the Jets had a harder schedule than the Stars (haven't looked at the Caps specifically).

The assumption was that it might matter.

Not an Oilers fan but I do pay more attention to them than the average non-Jets team. It's hard to overstate how bad this is for them.

No kidding the Oilers took a big hit losing him ... imo he is their best defenceman.
People don't realize how many things have to go right to get to the final ... injuries is #1.

 

[Jet]

So nice of the Stars and the Caps to shit the bed in the last 2 weeks of the season to give the Jets a comfy path to the President's Trophy.

Also, I don't think that they take the foot of the gas until they get it. I'm sure the players want that accomplishment.

That is rough, losing a quality D like that.

 

[Jet]

Yeah they don't have another D that brings that in his own zone.
