Keep 'em comin'...

3 games left. Let's get down to business. (Oops, that's a Detroit reference!) Fo sheezy...

Keep 'em comin'...

Tonight's victory would have been more decisive were it not for some blatant home cooking from the officials. I mean jeezus, what standard do these zebras live up to? Diving on Pavelski? Gimme a freakin' break! That sequence of events pretty much gifted a goal to Edmonton. Had that never happened, I think we'd be looking at a 3 goal differential (at worst) favoring San Jose.

Nevertheless, Detroit lost their third in a row at home to the Blues, putting them six points back of the Sharks with five games remaining. Unless Detroit wins out and San Jose puts Landon and Brody Marleau in the lineup down the stretch (think Sedins, just a wee bit smaller), the Sharks should have the West wrapped up. The Bruins are pushing hard after a collective brainfart had everyone thinking that the Devils or Capitals would steal the number one seed in the East. They sit 3 points back of the Sharks in the race for the Presidents' Trophy with five games remaining as well.

I think we can wipe the Oilers' blood off the standings board and get ready to smear some Duck juice in its stead this weekend. The home-and-home series will be the last serious challenge of the regular season, might be a first round preview and certainly will not be easy games...

BRING. IT. ON.

Keep 'em comin'...
