Nucks have one game left against the Yotes, so I'd really appreciate it, Canucks, if you could lose out - and I'd really appreciate it, Yotes, if you could get at least one more point elsewhere

And devils, you know you can get at least one point against the Flyers in two matches, c'mon now

I bet the sharks will do really well in the playoffs

2nd round exit at least - probably better. I mean, the Oilers? The Ducks? Sharks can beat either of them.

Is Vegas auto-picking in the top 3? I remember them having the same odds (I think) for the lottery picks as the 29th place team, but what position are they slotted for without a win?

I can see them losing to both the Pens and Columbus in regulation

and I can also see the bolts taking it over the habs, and then they only have the Sabres to beat

or possibly the ilses topping the Devils and then the Sens - who are already comfortably placed.

hardly a miracle I would think - though maybe unlikely

Ala carte channels will never happen. The channels you want subsidize the ones you don't. The theory is that enough people watch at least one channel in a package that they all make money.

If you got only the stuff you wanted, the whole TV economy would fall apart.

They were supposed to be rolling out some kind of a la carte options here in canada this last december, but I haven't heard anything more about it.

the others? I dunno, we have a lot of dumb fans. I'd hate it, but to be honest whoever gets the job is going to have a rough year with the last year of the much declined Sedins, a couple kids that are probably all middle-sixers at best, half of a competent defense (and not one of them big on scoring goals) and an ownership that probably wants winning to happen right now.

Well anyway, while I'd like the Canucks to pick in the top 2, they'll most likely pick 4th - and if they do, I hope that Gabe Vilardi is still available and they take him. Still super young, already 6'3" and seems to be doing pretty drat well where he is.
