2012 Playoffs

I always find it interesting that the teams are compared on past playoff experience even as far back as 1996or even 2001 as none of this has any bearing on what will happen in these playoffs so why do we talk or even read about it.  Well it is interesting and we hope that it has some bearing on this year.  So what is of note this year?

• 5 teams have one the Presidents Trophy two years in a row (since it was introduced in 1985/86)
• of those 5 teams 4 have gone on to win the Stanley cup in the second year.
• the Canucks have met the Kings 4 times in the playoffs
• out of the 4 times twice the winner has gone on the Stanley Cup Finals 

So what?  Well we will hope that both of these will be hold true the odds are on the side of the Canucks.

More to come...
