The biggest challenge for the Yeti's is that they are the 6th best team in their division which is the best division in hockey … that's a bit of a challenge
Not sure that there's any reason to believe anybody ahead of them are planning on taking steps backwards …
That said, it wouldn't shock me if they competed for a spot next year
They ruined their game through a terrible playoff format change and a bunch of expansion teams that look like AHL/WHL concepts. Divisional rivals playing every year is terrible.
Kings are playing Edmonton for what, the 3rd year in a row? The Four Nations playoff was an excellent, I'll give them that.
But NBA playoffs where the stars are rested/fresh after 82 games and everyone has to play defense (or get exposed trying to) at this point is where it's at.
You sound like someone that isn't well versed or informed about hockey.
Kings and Edmonton are playing 4 years in a row … I don't have any issue with it although you'd like to see more back and forth each year in terms of both teams getting something out of each other
The NBA Playoffs are great when you get evenly matched teams that compete … Clippers/Nuggets will be a great series. The balance of this postseason though I suspect will be a bit of a yawn.

Nope. Saw the graphic of the teams that are in it this year… 😴
Are the Utah Yeti's ready to make a run yet?!

stars-avs playing round 1 when they’re arguably the 2 best teams in the west is so fucking dumb
See @Tequilla
This guy got it right away, whereas you're so far up your own fucking ass that your reply is simply, "You must not be well versed on hockey."
No, I am. I'll give you another chance to try again. "Utah Yeti's" was a pretty big softball as well.
I'm hearing that the Lakers are title contenders.
