In relation to points, there are 5 of the 6 Canadian NHL teams in the top 11

1 DETROIT
2 VANCOUVER
3 TORONTO
4 COLORADO
5 OTTAWA
6 PHILADELPHIA
7 MONTREAL
8 ST LOUIS
9 NEW JERSEY
10 BOSTON
11 CALGARY
12 SAN JOSE
13 NASHVILLE
14 TAMPA BAY
15 DALLAS
16 PHOENIX
17 LOS ANGELES
18 NY RANGERS
19 NY ISLANDERS
20 ATLANTA 45
21 MINNESOTA
22 BUFFALO
23 EDMONTON
24 FLORIDA
25 CAROLINA
26 ANAHEIM
27 CHICAGO
28 WASHINGTON
29 COLUMBUS
30 PITTSBURGH

This is unprecidented. These teams have no money (with the exception of Toronto and Vancouver), and yet, they compete with Detroit, Colorado, and Philadelphia who have some of the best players in the league.

Just ahve to make a comment that the Oilers are a disgrace and Edmonton doens't deserve the title as the "City of Champions".

I guess we just all have solid teams who work hard.

Affirmative action?

Maybe its because Canadians are better at hockey most times. The US has basketball, Canada has hockey.

And techically Toronto beat Vancouver twice, and we both have 59 points and the same number oo games. So wouldn't that make Toronto 2nd and Vancouver 3rd?

The Toronto Raptors have the most popular basketball player in the league.

we will be able to pay it however...Hasek and his 10 mill will be gone...good chance the captain will be gone as well as some of the other vets(lidstrom..unfortunantly, chelios, hull)

I still love my Oilers. Hey, at least we aren't dead last...

Myself personally, think Lidstrom is one of the biggest parts, if not the biggest part of the red Wings. It would be tragic to see him go.
