Who will win the Presidents' Trophy?

[Bloody Brian Burke]

With 6 teams currently tied for the league lead in points with 91, another team 1 point back and 2 more within 5 points Gary's parity is on full display. Who will come out on top and win the ever-coveted trophy for most points in a season? Correct voters receive free Leafs tickets.

I'm going Rangers.

The Rangers have the most games left to play at 16 and 9 of those games are against teams not currently in playoff position. Advantage: Rags

I want it to be St Louis. Two reasons;
1) TEH BLUEZ
2) It means Jarmo and JD *can* build it. My faith is shaken at the moment.

Would a picture of jesus on a brontosaurus help?

Might help if you actually had one.

Looks more like a Jurassic Park version of a raptor to me.

Well I guess we all learned a little about dinosaurs today.





(BOOM! Set that one up perfectly. )

I think Jarmo and JD should get a pass this year, the Jackets have been decimated by injuries. All we need is just a little patience.

8 of the 28 winners went on to win the Cup so it isn't so bad.

How can you say it means nothing?

The announcer at Verizon still introduces "the 2010 President's Trophy Champions - your Washington Capitals!" as the Caps take the ice.

youd expect it to be alot higher though no?

and really since the 2004-5 lost season which they came out of with rule changes that opened up and changed the game, only 2 of 9 pres trophy winners have won the cup

Colorado had the same thing... at least until they retired the #7 two years later.

I would think, but that's why I called it the kiss of death. Of course it could be because Boston has won it twice and didn't win the Cup either time.
