                  How appropriate Leafs and Canadiens go to overtime and a shootout in Bob Cole's last game after 50 years as the voice of Hockey Night in Canada.

                  Thank you Bob

                        @simmonssteve: Good guy Bob Boughner has been fired in Florida. That makes six coach openings for next season. And Buffalo should make seven openings. Have to believe Craig Berube stays in St. Louis so there are coaches to be hired in FLA, ANA, EDM, LA, OTT, Philly and should be Buffalo.

                          This is the first season since 1984 I have given a sh-t about the NHL post-season. Hey, when did the Minnesota North Stars move?

                            The on-ice product of the NHL playoffs is often the best post-season in sports. The format the NHL uses for their playoffs though, leaves something to be desired.

                              Is it the wild card(s) that causes the hatred? Everyone clamored to have divisional rivals once again for the playoffs because "conference rivalries don't exist," so the NHL went back to the four divisions (ala Adams, Patrick, Norris, Smyth) because fans wanted the divisions to be important.

                              If we did conference (and gave the division winners the top two spots), we'd have:

                              (1/MetroWinner) Tampa vs (8) Columbus (same matchup)
                              (3/AtlanticWinner) Washington vs (7) Carolina (same matchup)
                              (2) Boston vs (6) Pittsburgh
                              (4) Islanders vs (5) Toronto

                              (1/PacificWinner) Calgary vs (8) Colorado (same matchup)
                              (3/CentralWinner) Nashville vs (7) Vegas
                              (2) San Jose vs (6) Dallas
                              (4) Winnipeg vs (5) St. Louis (same matchup)

                              (Or, don't award divisional winners the top seed and flip WAS with BOS and also SJ with NSH)

                                It's an abortion but so is everything except straight 1-16, no divisons, no conferences, so whatever.

                                I actually like that it's so stupid. It kinda puts everything in perspective. In case you imagine it can't be worse, the WHL used to have this system:

                                Top 6 teams make the playoffs.
                                Play three series, 1-6, 2-5, 3-4.
                                Reseed.
                                1 gets a bye in the second round, 2-3 play a full series.
                                Winner plays the 1.

                                If you can do worse than that I'll give you a prize.
