Standings Update
Looking at this week's standings we see that there is a good chance that we could see a switch of powers. New York Rangers have been looking rather weak lately going 4-4-2 in their last 10 and losing their last 3. While on the other hand, Pittsburgh is surging getting 9 straight wins putting them only 2 points behind New York Rangers. With the probable return of "You Know Who", Pittsburgh really looks like it will most likely become the new number 1 in not just the division, but the conference.

-Halmo Signed: Owen Sound LW Mike Halmo was signed saturday to an entry level contract by the Islanders. The undrafted forward has 40 goals and 84pts this season

-Defense Full of Milestones: The Philadelphia Flyers has D full of milestones. Pronger is 2pts away from 700 (though likely won't reach it this season), Timonen has reached 500pts and is also waiting on 400 assists (4 away), Meszaros has reached 200 points and Carle is 3 away from 200 points.

Rangers/Penguins: Can the Rangers hold? Can the Pens catch up?
Letang: Another big Pen looking to return, quieted by Crosby.
Jagr: Told to take it easy due to injury, he will play 4th line for The Flyers for now.
