The Bestern Conference?

ESpN showing off their top notch National Hockey League coverage:

I predict that the Sens go undefeated against the Northeast division this year. BOOK IT!!!

 

[forty_three]

Not to worry. The Jackets joined the shittiest division of the four, so it seems. Plenty of time to polish that turd

You must be mistaken. Barry Melrose said that five of the playoff teams in the East could come from that Division.

Provided Linda Cohn and Steve Levy agreed with him, which they usually do as they're the only three who even talk puck, well then you have the trifecta of doom!

Isn't that pathetic?!?

How can they claim to be the worldwide leader of sports if they can't even get the current standings listed correctly?

Great line from a good horror movie - Who can name it without resorting to google?

Don't remember the film, but I know it was a Robert Prosky line.

You are correct sir and deserve points for naming the actor who delivered the line

Problem is, I don't remember the movie, I just recognize him saying it...


Runs to IMDB/ got it!


Edit/ great Stephen King book

 

[KennyBanyeah]

GRRRRR... I've seen this recently because I remember the Can't polish a turd line specifically!!

Edit: Cujo? or Christine? I know it was early 80's.

Christine is the correct answer, Kenny.

 

[David_son]

He comes to this conclusion because 3 of the top teams in the league beat up two of the worst teams in the league.... Isnt that what they are suppose to do.

Will his opinion change if Bruins kill the Flames and the Penguins beat down the Jets

 

[KennyBanyeah]

Christine is the correct answer, Kenny.

Yeah... I finally checked it on IMDB.

I've only seen that movie in bits and pieces and I remember that line.

 

[KinderGentlerDup]

Just call my name and I'll be there.
ROFL.
And I won't get into the Best vs LEast debate. Grantland did a fantastic job of providing 12+years worth of proof. I can understand if somebody is bad at math, or can't read, or simply has homer conference goggles on so I can let it slide!

Teams 1 - 8 in the West have the same or more points than the #1 team in the East.

 

[mooger_35]

Vancouver is 4th (tied for 2nd in pts) in the Pacific DIVISION and would be #1 in the Eastern Conference.

 

[Gooch1034]

This debate has always made me laugh. "My Dad could beat up your Dad!" I don't give a shit if the East eats shit every game against the West as long as Pittsburgh doesn't.

 

[Kevin12773]

Mooger- while it's early yet to get a boner on west vs east it would be interesting to see the home/ away records using the same data. I can only speak on the caps situation but 10 of the first 16 against the west with 4 at home and 6 on the road. 3-1 at home &. 2-4 on the road for 5-5 against the west. Is it safe to assume those numbers will be better with more home games in DC?
And btw I'm fine with them being 5-5 at this point against the west getting that western Canada trip done early.

CRAZY, CRAZY #nhl stat here: West's 9th-place #lakings on pace for 104.8 points. East's 8th-place #nyrangers on pace for .... 82 points.
