Playoff preparation – looking at a few more Western Conference players
Last week featured the top four teams in the Western Conference playoffs, now it is time for the rest of the playoff qualifiers. The bottom four features the two weak sisters of the conference's playoff teams, Vancouver and Calgary, conveniently matched up against each other.
Conversely, the two wild card teams, Minnesota and Winnipeg, look deep and strong but both have question marks in net. For Winnipeg, can Pavelec continue his current run of hot play? While Minnesota needs Dubnyk to continue to provide a strong backbone in order to succeed, as none of their other options inspire confidence.
