Comments

1 1 They were bound to lose at some point. Better now than in June.
2 3 A four-game suspension to Corey Perry might hurt, but they started the year playing great without him.
3 4 The Habs continue to click on all cylinders.
4 5 Malkin gets a bit of a breather for another 7-10 days, but the Pens have the depth to score in bunches.
5 2 The Bruins haven't looked as dominant of late, but that'll change pretty quickly.
6 9 How the Senators continue to earn points confuses even the Hockey Gods.
7 6 The Kings look solid now, but they'd still like to replace the injured Matt Greene at some point.
8 8 Vancouver has yet to dominate this season, and a lack of depth might be the reason.
9 14 With Kovalchuk, Clarkson and Elias leading the charge, the Devils have continued to climb without Brodeur.
10 7 Did anyone predict Alexander Semin to have 20 assists and just seven goals in his first 25 games in Carolina?
11 11 The Leafs are starting to shake a little, and that's not something coach Carlyle will accept for much longer.
12 13 The Coyotes could use more scoring from their second and third lines.
13 15 The Blues are getting a balanced attack, but they need someone to step up and lead the offense.
14 16 Nice to see Rick Nash has finally arrived.
15 19 Suter and Parise are playing better... so is the Wild.
16 12 It's becoming more and more obvious that the Wings are just a normal team now.
17 10 Brent Burns as a forward? Really?
18 20 They've got the offense. Now, let's see if they can figure out how to play defense.
19 18 Lowest scoring team in the NHL. 'Nuff said.
20 17 Dallas has been decent, but they need more out of Jamie Benn.
21 22 As great as their young players are, they need to show everyone they what they're truly made of.
22 25 The Islanders are in the playoff hunt. Not much else to say.
23 30 The hottest team in the NHL lately has been the Columbus Blue Jackets.
24 24 Is it time to blow things up yet?
25 21 We have no words...
26 27 They shouldn't stay at the bottom of the West for long, but the playoffs aren't likely this season.
27 23 GM Steve Yzerman believes this can be a playoff team. It's time for the team to believe that, too.
28 26 Until Ovechkin wakes up, the Capitals are in big trouble.
29 29 Your "For Sale" sign has been created, Mr. Regier.
30 28 First, Stephen Weiss gets knocked out for the season. Now, Kris Vertseeg is done for the year. Bad luck.
