I remember when Dallas was once a great team...that organization's really gone downhill over the last few years. Nieuwendyk was great as a player, not so sure about him as a GM

I pretty sure it was our previous owner, Tom Hicks who caused a lot of the mess we're in now. I'm too sure Nieuwendyk is to blame for it all, but we will see how it goes.

This is true - hence why I said I wasn't sure. Could do better in a different organization, but who knows?

All good, my post wasn't exactly clear...but on the bright side, looks like your team is back in it now somehow!

It does appear that way, but I don't want to say anything right now. * fear of jinxing the team *

Oh yes, I know what that's like...last year at the start of February I was confident in saying the Leafs were going to make the playoffs...then they lost almost every game for two months. Hence why I'm not saying anything right now about that.

Homestretch of the season........ who will come out on top? Vancouver may finally break out at last, but I wouldn't be surprised if any chatter of putting an asterisk by their championship is heard (even though NJ didn't get one in 1995. XD)

Fighting the Red Wings for the 8th spot possibly get 7th if the Wild loses and we win Thurdays against the Stars.

I'm rooting for you guys - we've had it bad here in Toronto for a while but you guys have had an even worse time - nice to see that the Jackets finally appear to be a respectable team. You guys are long overdue for a shot in the playoffs. Detroit's been in long enough - time for some other teams to have a shot.

Plus, it will be fun to see the Flyers fans' reactions to see the goalie they gave up on lead his team into the playoffs, and even more fun if he gets the Vezina out of this.
