TW LW Team Our Take
1 1 Jose Theodore was the game’s first star in a 3-2 win over Columbus Saturday as the Capitals set club marks for most wins (51) and most road wins (23).
2 2 The Coyotes establish a franchise record with their 28th home victory against Edmonton.
3 3 Joe Thornton returns to the lineup with two assists in a 5-4 loss to Colorado.
4 5 A win over Calgary gives the Blackhawks their first division title since 1992-93.
5 4 Evgeni Malkin returns to action with goals in back-to-back games.
6 6 An overtime win against Detroit clinches a playoff spot for the hard-working Predators.
7 7 The inconsistent Canucks clinch the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference with an OT win over Minnesota.
8 9 The NHL's hottest team since the Olympic break missed a chance to clinch their 19th straight playoff berth by losing to Philadelphia.
9 8 Three straight wins are followed by losses to Original Sixers Toronto and Montreal.
10 10 Martin Brodeur records his 599th career win and 109th career shutout in a 4-0 decision over Carolina.
11 11 The Kings lost for the first time this year when leading after two periods Sunday, a 2-1 shootout decision to Anaheim.
12 12 A huge win over San Jose could keep help the Avs' dream season from slipping away.
13 13 Jaroslav Halak reclaims the crease with back-to-back shutouts.
14 14 Teenager Erik Karlsson continues to assert himself as a go-to player for the Sens.
15 15 With his team's playoff chances hanging by a thread, captain Jarome Iginla has all but disappeared.
16 16 Chris Mason continues to give the Blues top-notch goaltending, but their playoff hopes remain slim at best.
17 16 Goalie Curtis McElhinney has been reborn in Anaheim and has wins in five of his last six starts.
18 17 If the Bruins can take anything away from this season it will be the emergence of Tuukka Rask as a bona fide starter.
19 18 Even a win over Detroit Sunday probably won’t be enough to save the dysfunctional Flyers.
20 23 Three straight wins has the Rangers primed to pass the slumping Flyers.
21 21 The never-say-die Thrashers are clinging to their playoff hopes, but the Rangers are making it tough.
22 19 The big question now is did the Wild do anything this season they can build on next year?
23 22 Hot rumour: Wayne Gretzky, Brett Hull and Mike Modano might pool their money to buy the Stars.
24 24 GM Scott Howson has his work cut out for him in the off-season to turn this bunch around.
25 27 Two goals in four games constitutes something of a scoring streak for tough guy Colton Orr.
26 25 The Hurricanes were shut out at home for the second time in eight days, losing 4-0 to New Jersey.
27 29 John Tavares has six points (and he's plus-7) in his last four games.
28 26 All that is left for this season is to see if Steven Stamkos can win the Rocket Richard Trophy.
29 28 A thrilling 1-0 win over Boston is followed by a 4-1 thrashing by the Rangers.
30 30 This season can't end quick enough for the Oilers.
