00:00Detroit is in Carolina. Detroit's had all kinds of problems and they've really played themselves out

00:06There there's still two points back, which is amazing considering that they've lost

00:11Seven of their last ten but Detroit still there, but they have a lot of problems with Carolina

00:16They've lost five in a row to the Hurricanes and they're all games under by the way

00:20If you're looking for one of those totals tonight under five straight with Carolina and Detroit

00:25Edmonton is at the horse track against the Islanders out at Belmont believe it or not

00:31The Islanders have won 13 of 16 against Edmonton now, they play twice a year. I don't really love east-west trends

00:37But this one's a little bit better Islanders nine and one on the puck line in their last ten at the horse track

00:42So at home Islanders have either been winning or if they're grabbing a goal in half against a good team

00:48They've been covering that so nine and one puck line for the Isles best game tonight

00:52Dallas is in Winnipeg against the Jets two of the best teams in the Western Conference Dallas your new favorite in the Western Conference

00:59Winnipeg has the most points in the Western Conference. We know where we're gonna go here

01:03I will just spell it out now under under under

01:07Under the last six times these two have gotten on the ice together

01:11Expect another grind it out game tonight in the great white north between the Stars and the Jets

01:17Colorado is in Calgary

01:19Colorado beats up Calgary. They've won seven of their last eight against them and you look at Colorado now 81 points

01:27Two points up on Minnesota. So they passed Minnesota for third in the central and man

01:32That's it. That's gonna be a bear of a first-round matchup. You know, you get Dallas and Colorado in the first round

01:38Two great teams and then you throw in that you now have this ranting and stuff and trust me when Colorado sent ranting into Carolina

01:46They did not expect that they might see him again down the road maybe in the Stanley Cup final

01:52But not in potentially the first round because I don't think he I don't think Dallas is getting Winnipeg

01:59Winnipeg's got four eight points up on them right now

02:01With like we said anywhere from 15 to 17 games to play depending on who you are

02:06so the chances of a

02:08Dallas Colorado first-round matchup are getting stronger and stronger by the day and man that's gonna have

02:15Like a Western Western final type feel to it in the first round if we get those two teams couple other late-night

02:23Games Nashville is at the Duck Pond

02:26against Anaheim tonight

02:28Of course, both of these teams have in bad year

02:30The Ducks actually been hanging around the past couple weeks

02:33But Nashville's had a pathetic year and they're a road favorite there lots of overs recently between these two

02:39Especially there in Anaheim they've been cashing and Utah who we just mentioned is very much in the mix

02:46For that last spot in the Western Conference and they are a great road team

02:51You look at Utah on the road this year 16 12 and 4 very good and they're in Seattle tonight who stinks

02:57Laying some lumber there with the Utah Hockey Club, but they need every point they can get right now

03:02Seattle a good place to potentially go and get it
