Well Thanksgiving is over, the next holiday we can look forward to is Christmas.

Let's kick off your What's What in Hockey with checking my picks. Overal totall from last week was 149/297 or 50.1%.

11/24: 3/7
11/25: 3/3
11/26: 5/12
11/27: 1/2
11/28: 7/11
11/29: 5/12

I said Florida would upset the Rangers on the 28th...they lost but won on the 30th...crappy.

Yeah we have some new faces on the list. Mostly some day to day injuries which can suck, but is better than something season or career ending. I am suprized that there aren't more injuries than there are by now.

Have the standings changed? I dunno lets look at em...

Eastern Confrence Leader - Boston
(still holding it since they have fewer losses even though theres a points tie.)

Atlantic Division: NY Rangers GP27 W17 L8 OTL2 PTS36

Northeast Division: Boston GP24 W16 L4 OTL4 PTS36

Southeast Division: Washington GP24 W13 L8 OTL3 PTS29

Western Confrence Leader - San Jose
(Well Detroit was catching up but they dropped the ball last week playing inconsistently.)

Central Division: Detroit GP23 W15 L4 OTL4 PTS34

Northwest Division: Vancouver GP24 W14 L8 OTL2 PTS30

Pacific Division: San Jose GP24 W20 L3 OTL1 PTS41

Top 6 Division leaders:

1. San Jose (+/-0)
2. Boston (+/-0)
3. Rangers (+1)
4. Detroit (-1)
5. Vancouver (+/-0)
6. Washington (+/-0)
