A few games of notes tonight including the Panthers, Avalanche and Islanders all in action. The Islanders paid the Devils a visit and dropped a 3-2 decision but did pick up a single point.
The Panthers scored a big overtime win over the Tampa Bay Lightning and moved to 65 points on the season, six clear of the Sens. Unfortunately for Ottawa fans, the Colorado Avalanche continue to play absolutely terrible hockey. They lost to the Predators 4-2 and are in an ugly tailspin right now.
Ottawa is back in action tomorrow evening when they visit the Sabres for a 5:00 PM start.
Here is how the bottom five look after tonight's action.
| Florida | 69 | 28 | 32 | 9 | 65 | |||||||
| NY Islanders | 70 | 27 | 32 | 11 | 65 | |||||||
| Colorado | 68 | 26 | 34 | 8 | 60 | |||||||
| Ottawa | 68 | 25 | 34 | 9 | 59 | |||||||
| Edmonton | 69 | 23 | 37 | 9 | 55 |
line creaks now look good now in firefox, just gotta get the color fixed in the edit boxes.
Trading up into the 8ish spot to get huberdeau (sp?) Would be ideal as well.
I think it is kind of seen as this:
RNH/landeskog/larsson/cotourier in the one group
Murphy/strome/hamilton
Huberdeau/biggs
About 6 other prospects
About 45 prospects
In terms of groupings for "elite" levels for prospects.
Florida is the only team we play that we are 'chasing', I think we will be able to beat them but we won't catch Edmonton and with B.E. a member of the Avalanche now...I think we will be picking third. At best.
Colorado is just a crappy team - lots of losses before the goalie trade.
Things get a little worse if we pick later than that. Couturier and Strome are by no means slouches, but I see them as having a lot more risk than the top 3.
Though falling to fourth (minus terrible lottery outcomes) would mean catching either the islanders or panthers who both seem to be doing ok right now
I've had some posts disappear too, not sure whats up with that.
I'm not overly worried if we have to pick behind Edmonton and Colorado as I think the Oilers will take Larsson and Colorado will take Landeskog (with Duchene and Stastny already at centre). But after taking in Red Deer's game tonight in which they scored 5 goals all of them Ryan Nugent-Hopkins contributed to (3g,2a), I really would sleep easier if Colorado were picking behind us.
Have 2 questions about my particular differences in posting on SensChirp .
1- Have an icon where I can edit or change script in original post, and I like this feature.
2- My particular post does not indicate a Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down feature ?? Is it because I did not want this feature ??
Awaiting your responsees !!
Does that -1 make you feel better now...(smile)
Hard to see it with grey background
Hope you can repair same
Yep this will be an easy fix. Should get done tomorrow.
