If the playoffs started today. How does the seeding work?

Top 3 teams in each Division make it and the points are sorted through those 6 teams?

Leafs being 7 Columbus being 8?

I think you play within your division the 5th place team crosses over and plays the first in the other division if five from one division make it

Well? Off to bed. I'll check the Leafs score, when I get up for my 11PM piss. It should be about 6 - 1 by then. Then I can go back to bed and sleep until 4:30AM, then get up and hit the road to Peterborough and freeze my a$$ off, while doing deliveries early in the morning.

And then you can listen to Mike Richards talk about one of the best leaf games in recent memory. And feel shame.

Well the terrorists keeping me captive sent my ring finger first, feet don't happen until they take my sinning hand first...so please pay my (frank)ing release money whisperdoodle.

I think it goes like this..

Atlantic
Boston vs Philadelphia
Toronto vs Tampa Bay

Metro
Pittsburgh vs Columbus
New York vs Montreal

If Pittsburgh wins the East they face the weaker wildcard, and the winner of the Atlantic faces the stronger wildcard.

Now that you say that. I do remember something like that now.

I would be more then happy to feel shame about what I'm saying, but being a realist tells me that the odds are really stacked against us. It's not like we have a Wendell or Dougie to get us motivated. Who's going to motivate us? Raymond? Gunnerson? Phil and Dion are too busy playing ping pong with Bozak's left nut.

Adam "black widow" French ...

This is fun......minus 27 without the windchill. Time to take a walk with a light spring jacket, since it's feeling spring like. Then I'll go to bed. I'll wait and watch the first 5 minutes of the Leafs game, and once Colorado scores (2:17 in the first period). then go to bed.

He's like Ryan Gosling without teeth.

Dreams do come true.

The leafs are out shooting the avs. Sustain that.

Why is the 4th line out there a minute in, in the d zone... geeze.
