Western Conference Standings – Through March 29
What a difference a few days makes! Suddenly the Kings are in a tailspin and the Avalanche are desperately trying to hold on to eighth place while the streaking Red Wings are in sixth and the Predators are only five points behind the Blackhawks! Yes, the Hawks have played the fewest games in the West, but at the rate things are going is that a good thing?
How sweet would it be if these were the playoff seeds?! We would play a real struggling team and Vancouver would have to play the Wings. I don’t care that we are not going to be a one seed, the Sharks have proven they don’t advance to the conference finals anyway. Vancouver having to play the Wings in the first round would be yummy!!
