I was trying to figure out how to spell that

[D'z Nutz]

Ah damn it.

[D'z Nutz]

That was too close, but we got the 8th spot for tonight.

[max_boost]

Interesting....

Tied for 8th spot? Col gets it cause they have more wins right?

[95teetee]

couple thing from the last few seconds-

-don't like how the linesmen nowadays call icing when the puck goes by a foot away from the point d-man.

-how does Moss get thrown out of the face-off when he's just standing there waiting for the puck to drop?

But we have a game in hand. If LA wins tonight, we still get 8th because we've scored more.

- There was no touch on the play and it looked like more then a foot away to me. Icing is icing. Read the rules.... http://www.nhl.com/ice/page.htm?id=26494

- He wasn't just standing there, he was crowding the circle.

WTG Baertchi!

[Diesel2005]

Lets cheer for the Oilers just once tomorrow

They have to beat San Jose for us.

[max_boost]

Wow. Games against Phoenix and SJ next. So cliche but damn are these ones ever important!

I hate the thought of cheering for the Oilers, but yeah, "Go Oilers." And Nashville and Anaheim.

[Freeskier]

SO sweet that Baertschi got his first goal. Was glad to see him get called up for a few games this year, help boost his confidence and hopefully we see more of him next season. It seems like he's gonna bring alot to this team in the future.

Not quite. Tie breakers are in this order:
1 fewer games played
2. greater number of games won, EXCLUDING S/O wins
Those are in the "row" column (Calgary has 29, LA has 27)
3 Head to head record

And THEN
4. Goal differential. (goals for minus goals against)

Ahh that makes sense I always wondered this season what the row column meant.

will he play a few more games or will he be sent back down now?

[Freeskier]

I dunno, I assume he'll be on the way back down soon. Maybe 1 or 2 more? I think he was called up on an emergency recall, so he'll probably be reassigned. Could be wrong, guess it all hinges on how the injured players are coming along and our AHL guys are playing.
