250Integra Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Might be a blessing in disguise for the Canucks (depending on how this plays out). Markstrom and Tanev will probably be healthy by the next time we play and this break will let some of the other players recharge for a push. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He kept posting about winning percentage and when I pointed it out he started talking about point percentage two very different things. I still think going back to 68 games is fairest. So you think it’s more fair to ignore the results of games that were actually played rather than applying a simple formula to the results of every game played? Fair enough. It’s clear I won’t change your mind, nor will I change mine. Have yourself a good day 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GritGrinder Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 (edited) Some people have mentioned that if they do suspend the season and start the playoffs in a month or so and just use the current standings to determine the playoff teams that they might go back to each teams record after 68 games, which seems logical. So lets see how that looks for the Western Conference. Western Conference Central Colorado 41-19-8 90pts St. Louis 40-18-10 90pts Dallas 37-23-8 82pts Pacific Vegas 37-23-8 82pts Edmonton 36-24-8 80pts Calgary 35-26-7 77pts Wildcard Nashville 34-26-8 76pts Vancouver 35-27-6 76pts Colorado would take the Central based on more regulation wins. Nashville would take the first WC based on one more regulation win. Canucks would get Colorado in the first round. Looking at the current injuries for both teams the time off would seem to benefit the Avalanche as they would be getting back 5-6 regulars.

Odd. Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 MLS suspended their season for 30 days just now. NHL's very likely to be next. Welp, sucks the season has to end like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Canucks would go against the defending champs in the first round. So after everyone is rolled back to 68 games I guess we get the last playoff spot, good for us.

falcons Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Give it a month and if it all looks good to come back every team goes into the playoffs. Make every series a best of 5 . All teams can get back some revenue in ticket sales aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Going to be interesting how this plays out but surely they'll just postpone the rest of the season or perhaps end the season at 75 games? Or call the playoffs based on win %. Either way, this benefits all teams with major injuries and the Canucks without their MVP is one of them.

Assuming 71 was the cutoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
