It won't change anytime soon, the owners like it.

I dont see how the owners of Boston/Toronto would like it. The Leafs will likely lose revenue in the first round alone by not having home ice.

If you think how much a home game is worth, its not nothing in the playoffs, also with the chance of being out in the first round and losing home games in the second round as well.

Also Stamkos is a Leaf fan, so of course he's whining about it.

- Zezel


Some owners like it. I am not sure Jacobs in Boston will, and he has more pull than anyone with Bettman it seems.

The Leafs have to get into the playoffs before they can bitxh about the format... the way they are playing i am not very confident.

And in turn, so does the entire NHL. Leafs pay the most in revenue sharing. More revenue, more $ for teams like Arizona, Florida and Carolina.

Seriously? Check-out the standings. They are locked in at least 3rd.

Playoff revenue is not counted towards revenue sharing. Even a greater reason for MLSE to hate this system. Im pretty shocked they havent stepped up and made a fuss.

You're just going to have to live with that one for a while

Any good games you've been playing lately? I go through games spurts and then won't pick anything up for like 6 months.

- RickJames77


It's my own damn fault for trying to sound smart once in my life.

As for games, I'm almost done with an awfully long RPG called Xenoblade Chronicles 2 on the Nintendo Switch... It's pretty good but after more than 50 hours in.... I'm more than ready to move on.

I did try some Apex Legends, thought it was pretty cool but I'm more than done with battle royales.

Maybe I'll hit the new Devil may cry next, looks pretty amazing.

Habs are 8 points behind the Leafs and have statistically, the toughest schedule to end the season of any team.
I would bet against Montreal getting a WC spot right now, let alone getting 3rd in the division.

Similar to being an Oilers fans...

Leafs have sucked buffalo balls for 50 years. So, we know how you feel.

Habs will get in.

I am 52% convinced.

- Scabeh


I recall telling you that the Habs weren't going to be in at the start of the season.

I think a lot of people went even further and considered them a bottom 5 team before the season started. I maintained that I hope they finished with the best record of the teams that miss the playoffs
