Step Up

There are two more games left in February.  If the Jackets keep playing the way they’re playing, there’s no doubt that we’re going to make the playoffs.  But, the race is tight right now, really tight.

5.  Vancouver Canucks ~ 68
6.  Columbus Blue Jackets ~ 66
7.  Dallas Starsc~ 65
8.  Minnesota Wild ~ 64
9.  Edmonton Oilers ~ 63
10.  Anaheim Ducks ~ 63
11.  Nashville Predators ~ 60
12.  Los Angeles Kings ~ 59
13.  Phoenix Coyotes ~ 59
14.  St. Louis Blues ~ 58
15.  Colorado Avalanche ~ 57
