Crap, I'm going to tomorrow's game against Anaheim, who are last place in the West. I hope we don't play down to their level and lose.

So Flames down 4-3, 1 minute left with a 6-4 and they lose, lol. If the Canucks win tomorrow, they're 2 points from the Flames.

Good news is we have games in hand on the Avs so been first in the NW could happen soon if we keep winning.

They're charging $275 for a blank replica Russia Jersey. The signing is run by the same crooks (Game Day Auctions) that run the silent auctions at Canucks games. I dropped by the Olympic store today to check it out and I was ready to spend some money before I saw the Game Day thieves and decided not to.

The cheapest item is a photo or poster that goes for about $100. Times that by 400 people and that's $40,000 in their pocket. That number will be even higher when you factor in people buying multiple items or buying $100+ items. I was going to spend money on a jersey as well as bringing 1-2 small items (McFarlane bases) to get signed but you can't bring in any of your own things. All of your items have to be purchased from Game Day.

What really has me confused about this one is everybody was going up in arms about the Kesler, Burrows, and Pyatt signing last year where they were going to charge $25 a pop. Nobody complains about having to pay for this Ovechkin signing or at the monthly Bossa shows.

That's some BS, charging people that much money to get a bloody autograph. I would rather mail a jersey to the Caps head office with a letter enclosed asking Ovechkin to sign it.

OT/SO loss - 1
Regular loss - 0

Then each game would be contributing exactly 3 pts each regardless of outcome.
I agree on the point that it doesn't make sense that some games are worth two points, and other games are worth three points.

But I have a much better solution to everything...

Regular win - 2
OT/SO win - 1.5
OT/SO loss - 0.5
Regular loss - 0

This way, every game is worth two points, as it had always been, but losers still get a little something for getting to overtime.

i've always been a fan of soccer style where you get 3 points for the win (FTW! :P)

i think the 2 points system InvisibleSoul posted would work better than what's going on now with loser points.

thats nearly the same shit as it is now, it would just make the loser point a little less relevant

personally i wouldnt mind going back to tie's and playing a full 10 or 20 minute OT

Duh? That's the whole point... it's a compromise between awarding nothing for getting to overtime, and awarding too much for getting to overtime... and at the same time, it keeps it a two point per game system.

which is what you quoted and said some games would only add up to 2.

from what i can see, every game adds up to 3.
