West is tough, but time will tell. AVS are going to the Cup!

With respect to the President’s Trophy, I wouldn’t give it too much weight. I remember sitting in some bar in rural Pennsylvania for the first game of the 1994/95 Stanley Cup Finals only to watch the Devils school the Wings in the use of the neutral zone trap. Game winning goal was delivered by none other than Claude Lemieux - something I’d been able to forget about that crushing defeat until I googled the game.

Caretaker, PT...it's a good start.

Ask the Hawks about the PT last year...

But, as I say...it's just a start.

The second season begins shortly !

ETA: the PT is worth approximately $350 grand for the winning team...that's a good start to the playoff beer kitty.

They are struggling and playing a bit dirty....and now have lost Seabrook for 3 games....Will they recover?

Heartless, dirty and stupid will get you beat.

Just ask the Blackhawks.

It’s as if the Hawks were begging to blow Game 2 of the playoff series against the Blues, and St. Louis accommodated.

The Hawks were heartless early, and they were dirty and stupid late, choking away another third-period lead and losing another game in overtime.

Frankly, they deserved it. They deserved to lose a game in which they looked like amateurs a majority of the time.

It was enough to make you grab your crotch in disgust.

The Hawks came out reluctant to go to the tough areas and they weren’t wild about defending those spots, either. If they didn’t lose every battle for loose pucks, then they were losing the important ones.

This was how a defending champion responds to a triple-overtime loss?

Yes, they will. St. Louis has its share of dirty players.

That was a heck of a series between the Wild and the Avs. I suspect it will grow the rivalry between the clubs. I was very impressed that the Wild was able to answer after falling behind 4 times in a game - then eventually get the go-ahead goal when it counted.

Bring on the defending champs!

I hear you brother. That was such a rookie style play to allow the Wild a 2 on 1 by the AVS. Well their a young team and will be back here again next year.

Patrick needs to work on Varlamov weak side. 3 out of the 4 points were from the same general area of play.

Great season Colorado Avalanche! !! THANKS
