do the analytical top teams transfer their regular season dominance to playoff success? right now the record setting team can be swept in the first round.

Gadj is lighting it up in garbage time, He will fit in nicely in Van.

I think there was 5 fights in the game yesterday. Pres and I made projection for Gad this season.

Pres had 10g 8a 80 pim -7 in 52 games
Minivan had had 5g 6a 62 PIM -12 in 46 games.

Currently 4g 5a 25 PIM (I think all fights) -5 in 41 games.

4 goals yesterday in a 8-0 win. Kid can score

Pre season predictions made that are in the book for how the season will go.

Lefty - Canucks finish with less points than last season.

Lord - Canucks finish 10th last

Marwood - Last place, worst season on record.

Neem - Arizona only team that could finish below Van.

MiniVan - Canucks Bottom 6 with ARI, MTL, DET, NYI, NYR

Vantel - Canucks finish ahead of ARI, CGY, OTT, FLA, CHI, MTL, BUF, LA

Safe to say that the Canucks exceeded almost everyones expectations

He played an exhibition yesterday against Finland, they lost 1-0.

Couple clips his elusiveness there though

So I had 8 teams finishing worse than Canucks
Seems like my expectations were pretty close

Today*

My bad.

I don’t think people realize how poor Foote’s team is. The Kelowna Rockets have scored fewer goals this season than Peyton Krebs’ Kootenay Ice. Despite this, Foote is a more productive producer of primary points than Krebs.

They were terrible this year, I know I sat through a lot of crappy games. Not sure how they’re going to be competitive hosting the memorial cup next year.
On Foote, he played a lot better once dad took over the coaching. More focused, easily the top forward. Not top 10 though.

In terms of skill he's easily top 10 in the draft. He will be taken by the first team that decides his size doesn't matter.

His foot speed probably puts him a mid second rounder. Wonder if it's a situation like Matthew Strome falling all the way to the 4th round.


I forgot that the Winnipeg Ice will be playing near me next season. I miss Jr hockey since leaving Brandon.

He wasn’t dumb enough to actually believe the canucks would finish ahead of the flames ....he just put them in there to try to get a rise out of me lol

lol I have them in the cup finals in my bracket and both teams might be out round 1.

Hellebuck just isn't a PO goalie it appears. Man was he awful last night. You could see the frustration on Scheiflie's face...

Predictions were made last summer I believe. I don't think anyone league wide expected Flames to finish second place.

The more active teams last year,Flames Habs Hurricanes St L made the biggest splashes last year.

Habs finished lower than we did the previous year but were very active in the summer and went down to the last 2 games before being eliminated.

I want to see Canucks active with trades this year. I think if we did not play the season last year with Andersson Pouliot Gudbrandson Hutton we would have had at least 8 more points.

I like our team going into next year and think we have a chance at being a playoff team . The question is what moves and how much better we are.

Yep was close I had them finishing 21st and picking 10th.

You do know that if I knew exactly who was going to finish where and in what spot , I would be sitting at the draft table instead of Jim.

I got 3 of the 8 teams correct, three more of the teams I listed we were within 5 points of. I think that is a pretty impressive guess without a single game being played yet.
