Looks like the Flyers will have to make the playoffs as a wild card team! Leafs right on their tail but hopefully they get into it viva the 2/3 spot in the division! My 2 rooting interests this year, Flyers and Leafs!

Patrick Marleau got his 500th goal. That's the sort of thing that really drives home how far my fandom from the NHL has drifted.

If asked to guess how many goals he's got, I would have said 244.

At least I have heard of him. Dude who is 6th in league scoring right now ---> never hearda ya pal.

Brent Burns is on a hell of a tear. 3rd in scoring behind McDavid and Crosby!

I was listening to Gary Bettmen discuss the cons of the NHL participating in the 2018 Olympics - and one thing he pointed to as a big negative was the compressed schedule.

He said it is very difficult when teams play 5 games in 7 nights.

It made me wonder, has a team ever played 5 games in 7 nights?

I would bet no.

Insurance in case Quick gets hurt again. He's just a rental.

Having two great goalies before playoffs is a good thing.
