Though they lost 4-1 to the Flyers on Saturday, the St. Louis Blues became the second team to qualify for the postseason (the Bruins were first, which isn't a surprise seeing as how they're the best of the three Eastern Conference teams that are passable defensively) when Phoenix lost to Boston in regulation.

Fantasy Hockey Geek discusses the art of targeting specific categories for an H2H matchup.
The Rangers escaped with a win in Rick Nash's return to Columbus on Friday, but Nash didn't seem to be in a festive mood. He got into a scuffle with Sergei Bobrovsky after a disallowed goal and later dropped his gloves for a fight. Once Nash cooled off he was able to post a team leading seven [...]

Price returned from injury on Saturday and played the entire game, stopping 30 of 34 shots in a 5-4 overtime win over the Ottawa Senators. While Price is back he won't travel with the team [...]
UPDATE: It looks like Carey Price will return tonight against the Sens. * Marty Havlat had a goal and an assist to help the Sharks to a victory over the Islanders. He’d be a very tempting acquisition right now, but you just know he won’t stay healthy for long. If you are [...]
Those of you into UFC, I'm running a fun little pool here if you want to join. *** My column for The Hockey News yesterday continues my look at the Trade Deadline Look at this headline. Funny.
