It's coming... The post NHL season, the run for the cup, 16 wins. Currently the post season race is heating up, with both the east and the west conferences being divided by only a few points between 8th and 12th in the west and a matter of 4 points separating 8 and 10th in the east. While 7th is just one point ahead of 8th.
This is by far my favourite time of year, and I know it is Marks as well. What I enjoy most of all is the effort that some teams give this time of year, for them it's win or go home and non of the players want to fast track themselves to the golf course. This year we're seeing something we haven't seen in a long time; teams pulling out wins and going at it full steam ahead all vying for that lucrative 8th spot. As we saw last year 8th isn't always a bad spot, montreal was 8th going into the finals last year and they made it all the way to the eastern conference finals, as well, with the race being so close this year it's pretty much an "anything could happen" year. Keep your eyes on the west though cause the battle for post season positioning is on fire and the games are amazing to watch. For all the leafs fans out there I would say one thing, let's keep it going, we're right where we want to be, yes for now that's on the outside looking in, but the team is starting to play like one, the guys look comfortable with each-other, they know their role and they are playing some inspired hockey.
