Rangers=Deplorable.
how about the Avalanche? pretty big win over the Flames last night.

[clifffclaven]

yeah the rangers started 7-1-0.... and have gone 7-8-2 since.

My hawks are in first in the central, and more important, have 3 games in hand against la/san jose and 4 against colorado. Hopefully they dont fall apart after the olympic break.

[Shawn Lutz]

another injury for Detroit, Helm out with a wrist injury. Thats 7 regulars out of the line-up for the Wings....adversity lets us see what kind of kids we have.

Tonight its the Phoenix Coyotes vs. Grand Rapids Griffins (wearing Red Wings uniforms).

[Rupe]

Pens...first team to 20 wins and getting healthy again.

Hey Flyers fans, where did all you guys go?

We're all waiting for Ed Snider to die.

Well, Philly obviously has room problems because on paper they should be a dominant team, other than goaltending. It wouldn't be the first time Pronger killed a team's chemistry.

griffins won... although they lost ericsson in the process. That did not look good.

[Shawn Lutz]

Another Wing clipped....Ericsson (Big E) out at least a month (rumor) with a knee injury. Patiently waiting for the results of the medical evaulation this morning. 8 regular Wings are now down and counting....wtf man?

[atomic charvel guy]

Same headline as usual, Gaborik scores as Rangers lose-lol
Another game tying 3rd period goal for the guy though, can't say he isn't clutch, but it was good to see Dubinsky back last night.
The predators are on the make.

[clifffclaven]

preds looking good, but the KINGS?!? 1 game out of first overall?!

[atomic charvel guy]

I like seeing some different teams emerge to contend.
Overall, I think the West is tougher pound for pound, what do you guys think?
