Things are tense

In the NHL's southeast division:

SOUTHEAST...............GP.....W......L.....OT....Pts
Carolina Hurricanes......58.....27.....27.....4......58
Atlanta Thrashers.......58......27.....27.....4.....58
Washington Capitals....56.....26.....25.....5......57
Florida Panthers.........57......26.....26.....5......57
Tampa Bay Lightning...56.....23......27.....6......52

But:
Neige I notice the Canadiens have 67 points, and are #2 in the Northeast division, behind only the Senators with 72 points.

And Sugarsprinkles, if you're still out there, the Red wings are #1 in the Western Conference's Central division, *and the league*, with 87 points.

Yes, and the Sens whipped the Habs' butts last night. :tear:

Holy crap gekkogecko!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 10-2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And I'd just like to take this moment to point out that the Montréal Canadiens are now #1 in the east!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :line:

Not only was it 10-2, but Huet started in goal for the Caps last night.

(For those of you who don't follow it much, Cristobal Huet was, until last Tuesday's trade deadline, Montreal's goalie).

I'd say " go Wings" here but the playoffs are rapidly approaching ,and well, let's call a spade a spade, when we note that the Wings have been good during the regular season, but capable of collapses of monumental proportions over the past few seasons.


10-2???

When did they start allowing "safeties" in hockey? And was the 10 points the result of a TD followed by a field goal?
