Playoff Ready

Apr 7, 2008 4:51 AM David M Singer

The 2007-08 NHL regular season has come to a close.

It was a fairly busy weekend, at least for the Blues and Blue Jackets. St Louis won the back to back set by a combined score of 7-1, but there were also 7 fights in the faux playoff series (1, 2). Matt Walker had four fighting majors alone.

Flames atop FM list

For all the fighting Ducks talk this season, the Calgary Flames finished first on the team FM leader list with 70. Anaheim had 69, and the Vancouver Canucks 68. Last season the Ducks finished with 71 FMs, but the nearest team, the Phoenix Coyotes, had 47.

Fighting was up overall this season.

Great matchups

Some great playoff matchups to watch this first round. I’m keeping this post rather brief to get started on some playoff previews to post the next couple of days. From Rangers-Devils in the East to Ducks-Stars in the West, there should be some great games.
