Division won, now to just hope Dallas loses against St. Louis tomorrow and we beat Winnipeg and then we claim home ice through the Conference Finals.

I think we want to play Nashville. So depending on how LA and VGK do in their final games determines if we want 1st or 2nd in the division. We have troubles playing VS LA so we don't want them R1, VGK we can beat, but won't be easy. Nashville is our preferred opponent in R1 I think

After careful consideration of Lefty’s argument above. I am revising my predictions.

Modern era of sports betting first victim?

Raptors' Jontay Porter banned from NBA after betting investigation.

Beyond friendly wagers and guesses like above, not into betting on sports.
I wonder if we’ll regret opening this Pandora’s box one day.

I think allowing some level of gambling was fine/inevitable... they really just threw the lid off that thing from the start though and posted ads, sponsors, and info everywhere. The leagues shoulder some responsibility on it.

I think the point is even. If he's playi g left bench he has insider info youre not supposed to have. It’s all speculation and i have no idea what he was doing, but if he's betting bball that's a bit dodgy imo

Same with that dude on LA Dodgers.
Golden boy’s shine was so bright he appears to have deflected any blame so far. But it’s a bad look for the sport.

Ya, of course it's wrong for any player with insider info to inform the betting. I'm saying that since they allow so much to be bet on constantly, it's way easier for people/players to be enticed by it, and have more of an impact on the bets. If they limited the scope of what they allow, and don't have it plastered everywhere, it would reduce the compulsion or incentive for players to partake (and people in general, which would be a good thing).

Call me crazy but I don't care we play and I hope the players don't either. They have shown they can play with anyone. We're not a little biatch team anymore. Last few games the D have been hitting hard.

Vancouver won the division, they cant finish second... However, they can finish 2nd in the conference and then would play Nashville. Nashville has claimed the first wild card spot as they have the tiebreakers over both LA and Vegas.

Hronek deserves an extra half million on his next contract just for that chirp.

Preds and Canucks complained about the Apr 23rd start date for the series. Might be an Apr 21st start date.

This is the series isn’t it? Even if LA wins out they won’t have the same RW

I hope so. Best way to build a contender unless you’re Buffalo, 4 1st oa picks and the Oilers are just getting there now.

Canucks could still finish 1st in the west which means the bottom wildcard. So LA or Vegas. IMO they’d be bettter to rest everyone and bring up some emergency callups and throw the next game so they play Nashville.
