Now we have all this funny water around. It's hard and cold and you can walk on it. It sure is slick. Does anybody know what it is?

Since the Bengals are 1-10 the only way they could win the superbowl is if the entire league quit.

"For the sake of creation all the world must be cleansed for the Rangers have contaminated the earth and all that dwell within." they exclaimed.
Sad but true. We are all going to die because of the Texas Rangers. [img]graemlins/hairfreak.gif[/img]

Or you could blame it on the Detroit Tigers. They were just as bad as the Rangers. I know I would blame it on both of them evenly. :D

Hate to burst your bubble, antryg, but really the Bruins are the best in the NHL. Played 4 less games, but only 3 less points. ;) Mathematically... ;)

And yes, I know what the score was. [img]graemlins/1pissed.gif[/img]

Rubbish. Those 4 games could be 4 losses. You cant count points of unplayed games.</font>[/QUOTE]It doesn't matter whether or not the Bruins would win or lose for total points. All they have to do is get 4 points in 4 games to be the top scorer. They might lose by twenty points in each game (though that is unlikely. Very, very unlikely) but as long as they score four goals in four games, which they probably would, they become the top scorer. Right now they have the nost goals per game.

Mind you, this is all stuff I get from Iron's post. The only team that really matters is the Leafs. ;) I am pleased to see that they are actually winning now... Ed Belfour looks like a stoner. ;)
</font>[/QUOTE]Er,umm, tell me if I am wrong here, but I dont think you gain points in the standings by how many goals you get.

Win/OT Win= 2 points

OT Lose/Tie= 1 Point

Lose= 0 Points.

Right?

Err, Nevermind, I miss read the post, I also mis read true mooses post...I think.

You're right about the points. But whoever was disputing the claim of points was wrong as goals scored is not figured into standings.

But I think TM was talking about who scored to most goals in the orginal post..And I thought he was talking about the actuall points in the standings. But as you said, you can score 200 goals in a game, but it dont mean anything if you get scored on 201 times in that game [img]tongue.gif[/img]

If Moose was talking about goals scored, he would've said that. He plays hockey and knows the game, so he'd definitely make the distinction between goals scored and points in the standings. Moose was definitely referring to points in the standings.

No, but you can count games in hand when it gets a little closer to the playoffs.. not that the Stars, or Bruins, will have to worry about that... Leafs on the other hand..
