I think the more important part of the standings to look at is that 5 - 9 range.
Asit stands it goes like this:
9 - Anaheim - 72 points ---> 10 games left
8 - Boston - 69 points ---> 8 games left
7 - Pittsburgh - 69 points ---> 8 games left
6 - Philadelphia - 69 points ---> 7 games left
5 - Seattle - 68 points ---> 8 games left
Should be happening soon, if they intend to do it, with only eight games left.
BTW: Hasn't Nyman played nine games already? If so he's probably going back down to CV and someone else(Sale?) receoves a call up.
