Ketchup is bad enough in its own right, but those asswipes that insist on calling it "catsup" have no place in my world.

We have a 16% chance at the playoffs as of today. We were under 10% going into last night.

Boston, TB and Ottawa all play tonight. If they all win, we will most likely fall back under 10%

Honestly I'm with you, based on early performance and injuries (like it or not they did factor in) I say stay the course and they're not too far out of a play off spot. Right now they don't have the depth to be a contender, that's normal. I'm fine with where they are.

they have a chance but they have a lot of ground to make up

my guess is a 6 game win streak would have them closer to the 3rd spot in the east but not make a dent in how far they are to get a wild card spot

blue jackets and flyers are on fire, and I don't see the caps, rangers or pens slipping

I have no use for ketchup on a burger since I put a fresh tomato slice on the top and bottom

Wild card is over with. Our hope is to beat Ottawa, BOS, TB now every time we play them, and hope they slow down while we keep the same pace.

It's a long shot, but I would have guessed the odds were greater

If we could win 4 lose 1 for a good stretch . Could still happen. The last 2 games of Dec. are Bruins/Bruins. If we can split them and win the rest of the month . We could be sitting in a good position.

Ketchup is gross. I don't eat it on anything.

Most of the time when I say that, people look at me like I'm crazy.

Those will be the two biggest games.

Our issue is we are not just behind them though, we have to hope TB, FLA also doesn't get hot.

It's an uphill battle

I'm failing to see why we need the Alien Twins on this team, they have done absolutely NOTHING for Vancouver in all the years they have played there.

they would play a secondary role


plus this team can't score on a regular basis

short term deals, expire when we have to pay eichel and reinhart


people pay to get wet

If a single game can move the needle that much it's s dumb stat to track at this point in the season.

problem is our gm has been getting sloshed at 716 on weekday afternoons instead of filling the holes on this team

very frustrating

Filling them with what ? He's in no hurry to make any deals, just like he wasn't earlier in the season when we had more injuries then we do now. He's going to be cautious due to how much we have taken on and what we have moved in other deals. Teams are calling for Kane and Girgensons, he's not calling anyone about either player. We aren't a playoff team as of now let alone a cup team, no need to take on aging vets and bad contracts.
