The Eastern Conference really seems quite weak this season. Pittsburgh is the team to beat and looks very strong while Boston has to be ranked highly as well. Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa have all surpassed expectations this season but the rest of the conference has been a real disappointment this season. What has happened to perennial playoff contenders like the Flyers, Capitals and Sabres? The Panthers have really dropped off this season as well and even the Rangers and Devils have struggled mightily. I wonder if any of these teams just need more time as an 82 game season would have provided or if that even matters.

Everybody keeps saying that, but there's not much to go on since there are no inter-conference games. And it's not like the West standings are more top-heavy than the East.

Jarome Iginla wanted to go to Pittsburgh to play with Sidney Crosby. He got his wish (briefly), and that will make the Eastern Conference more interesting to be sure.

Im not over excited about the idea of bringing in Kipper from the Flames....
The Leafs should cement Reimer as number one. and let the kid get some playoff experience...
If the Leafs want to get a VET goalie...then Luongo has to be the guy....MakeArgonautsGreatAgain, 2021

I guess we can almost safely assume now that the Leafs will be in the playoffs for the first time since 2004. How does everyone feel about a potential first round matchup against Boston? I don't believe that these two teams have met in the playoffs since the late 1960s or maybe the early 1970s.

If they can take care of buisness in there 2 remaining games against the Habs, we very well might see a Leafs-Habs first round match-up. That would be awesome. Originally Posted by ArgoRavi

It was 1972. Leafs lost in five to the Cup champs, and only the first game was a blowout as the Leafs played them pretty tough. Then in the off-season the Leafs lost a bunch of players (including Bernie Parent) to the WHA and missed the playoffs in 72-73. Originally Posted by ArgoRavi

Minor correction: the Leafs last played Boston in the playoffs in 1974 and lost four straight.

Take the playoff stats as a grain of salt, or as the bible.
41% to play Boston
38% to play Montreal
13% Washington

Not a big fan of them either. I was fine with ties in the regular season. Originally Posted by argofan87

I would probably be singing a different tune if the Maple Leafs had any success in shootouts. Originally Posted by T-Bone

Always a beauty to beat the Habs, but a 5-1 victory is a uber bingo!

Leafs get 12 shots total, but still win 2-0 over the Devils.
