Interesting. Top 10 is a 50/50 split from each conference. Bottom ten is also a even split, if you don't count expansion team.

PPG are you gonna catch Washington? You've been 1 game back for about a month. Speaking of which, that last WC is up for grabs with Leafs stumbling a little bit.

Some great storylines out west. Dickie has a lot of work to do to avoid playing Colorado in round 1. Nash and Chicago are in a heated race to avoid playing Blues round 1, and instead playing the Stars. Pretty big difference in matchup there.


Looks like Dickie should be at 114 and not 110. That helps some.

The FNHL Western Conference has become a breeding ground for strong, high scoring teams this season.
Even the teams out of the playoff race are setup to do some serious damage this offseason like the Ducks, Canucks, Flames or poised to have young talent step up like the Oilers and Coyotes!
New ownership throughout FNHL has really shaken things up. :thumbsup:

Meanwhile in the East, Beantown :BOS-NHL: Bruins are doing what they do best, winning! :win:

That's got to be a first. Past yrs it's been all Eastern and LA. LOL

Thank you, Jonathan!

Been a pain in my as$ those Caps.
Then Philly had to face teams on roids last wk and could only walk away with 4 of 8pts.  :soapbox:
Philly's been bustin as$ since December and all we end up with is tough matchups wk after wk. Might be running out of race track but will keep putting pedal to the metal!  :toast:

:iatp: So true!
I like what I see in the West. It's the place to be in 2017-18 if you like a challenge. :toast:

Might have to give someone else a shot at #1 for a week. But then I want it back.
