Canucks clinch division with an outside chance to take the conference. Completely unexpected considering they were projected to finish near the bottom at the start of the year. Any wins going forward are a bonus, not expecting a DEEP run but anything can happen in this league.

I've actually enjoyed watching the Canucks this year.
Very sneaky good team.

Canucks really comes down to their goalie lasting. A month off for a knee injury you gotta hope he's back in top shape for the playoffs. Their backup with 1-4 in his last games isn't going to get them through.

Demko looked good last night against Calgary, he'll likely play in Winnipeg. Not too worried about lack of starts.

That's good. I'm not worried about his performance, I'm worried about his knee injury coming back after a couple weeks of hard games.

Edmonton is full of degenerate gamblers.

Edmonton enjoys gambling. Once they glob onto something, they are all in. Look at how many Garth Brooks concerts they hosted a few years ago in comparison with Calgary.
They know what they want.

The real answer is that there are a fuck ton more oilers fans than flames fans. Flames fans think the fanbases are equal in size which is hilariously wrong.

True. There is a little bubble around Calgary, the Pacfic half of BC, then the entire rest of Western Canada to the Oilers.

Makes sense.... they are the city of champions.

Outside of Calgary I can think of one Flames fan. FAR too many Leaf and entitled laurentian bullshit fans, those cocksuckers are everywhere.

It's a little bit of A, little bit of B.

I agree everywhere north of Red Deer are Oilers Fans.

But I maintain the Oilers fans (especially the copious amounts that I know), by and large are degenerate gamblers.

[Darell_n]

I’ve never met a Flames fan living in Red Deer either.

[bigboom]

Plenty of Oilers fans live in Calgary but very few/next to no Flames fans live in Edmonton.

[ExtraSlow]

This all sounds accurate.

Confirmed when I went to BOA in Edmonton lol

[gwill]

I ran into a bunch of flames fans at a hotel in leduc during the playoffs. I had gotten back to the hotel after a fund raiser. I was pretty drunk. I think oilers were losing. Ordered a round for everyone at the bar while chatting hockey. We scored 2 min later. Woo. We won in OT if I remember.

It was a quick $150 to $200 bucks down the drain on beers for 10 min of hockey that I watched.

Some good karma came our way

Bye bye Phoenix/Arizona! Don't forget to choke to death on your balls. You should've left two and a half decades ago.
Fuck all of you!

Approved
That said, I did have some reaaaaalllyy fun nights at Glendale / Scottsdale.

Great town.

[ExtraSlow]

Amazing town. I regret not going on the barn burner trip to mullet arena this year.

[Team_Mclaren]

It's actually just too bad that they never had a baller owner that gives a shit. The youth hockey programs are great in the area, hope they dont lose that.

[D'z Nutz]

Just reading more into this and in the eyes of the NHL, the Coyotes aren't getting relocated; Utah is a new team that bought the Coyotes assets and liabilities (players, prospects, draft picks, staff, etc). The Coyotes franchise has been made inactive and the owner has 5 years to get a stadium built, after which the franchise will be reactivated and its history is transferred to the new team.

tl;dr: the league still hasn't given up on hockey in Arizona.
