@primocalcio Funny you say that, Nick has shown himself as 1C w/o question Can you imagine Larkin 2C for Demidov? Use Texier or Bolduc on the other side? Sick. @mikeiavasile and I were talking that up

@SeanPBali 2. Suzuki led his team to a playoff birth. Amassing a ton of points and leading by example. Larkin's squad failed to achieve the goal... Larkin is a very good player. He would be an excellent 2C on an established competitor. But, he isn't the leader this team needs.

A requiem for the Red Wings Playoff preview BBQ playoff watch parties soon.. Team Michigan

@TerryPaczas Not this bad, but.. I do worry about purgatory right now. Teams in the division are trending up to say the least

@SeanPBali this wings game is bad. Is this who this team is or are these players trying to prove a point ??

@SeanPBali and @mikeiavasile PLAYOFFS! PLAYOFFS! Wait where are the @DetroitRedWings

@mikecommito *April 20

On this day in 1984, the Canadiens and Nordiques combined for 252 penalty minutes in a playoff game that became known as the "Good Friday Massacre." Bob Cole referred to it as the "brawl to end all brawls" #Habs365 #GoHabsGo

Oh Dianna! Tigers Wait a year Wings, again. @ShepMatt

@chengelis @detroitnews Prayers up @Jamie_Edmonds Peace be with you!

A terrific time tonight on a @PP_AllStars championship salute with @SeanPBali @BlueBellyTom & Jack! But given a contract impasse, Comcast viewers will need to catch us at 11 at FOX47News.com/sports/press-p… or find us there on demand when you wish. . . . Trust me. You won't be sorry!

@boucherfra48894 @NHL Non, c’est un homme tetu

@SeanPBali @NHL bettman veut pas changer format series

Hey @NHL stop this absurdity It looks like the #2 team in the West will be playing the #3 team in the West in the FIRST round In the East the two teams currently tied for 3rd will meet in the first round. Just go to 1-8 already.

@boucherfra48894 @NHL Tu dis la verite!

@SeanPBali @NHL bettman veut rien changer

@okuwinn @cfesler33 @NHL Wait..aren’t you the guy that just talked up(rightfully so) the parity in the league?! Dude…

@cfesler33 @SeanPBali @NHL That same forced elimination happens in the 2nd round anyway, assuming neither team gets upset in the 1st. The money of a few extra home playoff games is a fraction to the real punishment that happens from TV viewers skipping at least half the 1st round of random 1v8 matchups.

@okuwinn @NHL Yeah it’s really hard to get past the fact that 2/3 and 3/4 are playing in round one, maybe that’s why you aren’t answering if you think that’s ok? Yes, in “cost certainty” era the teams are closer, parity is real, so that’s even more reason to seed isn’t it?

@SeanPBali @NHL You are missing the point that 7s beating 2s shows that their is parity among teams. The idea is simply daft that there is injustice and unfairness to (as of today) the Lightning having a first round against the Canadiens with 104 points instead of the Senators with 96 points.

@neg_dave @NHL Yeah.. you’re looking at your team.. it happens! Perhaps you should try looking at the standings other than just your team? The developments in the last 3 months in the east have made it bad on both sides, doubling the absurdity, Holmes

@SeanPBali @NHL No shit Sherlock, it’s been pretty much locked in between these 2 teams for like 3 months now. Did you just look at the standings this morning?

@kenziecoombes @NHL Nah.. it’s even more absurd this year it’s not that difficult to see you can look it up, it’s easy, I swear

@SeanPBali @NHL It's like this every year... Why are u so retarded?

@neg_dave @NHL Nah, it’s even more absurd this year. The hope is the more absurd it gets, the more people wake up and call the absurdity out.

@SeanPBali @NHL Think you’re a bit late on this thought moron..

@sbs138 @Marc_Geer @NHL Unless you finish 2nd or 3rd in the conf in the west and 3rd and 4th in the east. Then it becomes the joke we see now

@SeanPBali @Marc_Geer @NHL Ridiculous. There's definitely emphasis put on winning the division. The higher the finish, the better the chances.

@Marc_Geer @NHL Yes of course, but there is no emphasis put on where you finish in the season? Should we put all 8 teams in the lottery machine and let the balls spit out to determine the draw? Make it a made for television event.

@SeanPBali @NHL You have to win 16 to win the cup no matter how they bracket the playoffs

@MFansay @NHL It would be anyways in a “cost certainty” era. The matchups would still be sick, especially in the East

@SeanPBali @NHL Regardless you need to beat the best teams eventually. First round is must watch TV

@okuwinn @NHL So..you think it’s a good thing it’s 2vs3 and 3vs4 in round one? Is that whining or lack of logic? To your point, then let that happen.. got no issue with settling it in a series. If the 7 seed wins, great. They beat a legit 2

@SeanPBali @NHL Whining about Stars v Wild in the first round instead of the SECOND round is tiresome. The Pacific was historically weak this year. So what. Also during 1v8 the #7 seed won 18 of 38 times and the #6 seed won 15 of 38 meaning almost half the time it wasn't 2v3 in the 2nd round.

@Alanificial @NHL Not against that at all

@SeanPBali @NHL Go 1-16. Get rid of conferences. Make Stanley Cup match ups a possibility of any two teams. Also I’ll be the first to admit wings don’t deserve playoffs but they would be leading the Pacific division instead of being 10th place in east.
