With less than 20 games a piece left in the NHL, it's time to look at where we are and where we could go. Here are the final standings of the season based on current winning percentages...

EAST

1. Buffalo
2. NJ
3. ATL
4. OTT
5. PIT
6. TB
7. NYI
8. CAR
9. TOR
10. NYR
11. BOS
12. MTL
13. FLA
14. WAS
15. PHI

WEST

1. NAS
2. ANA
3. VAN
4. DET
5. DAL
6. MIN
7. SJ
8. CGY
9. COL
10. STL
11. EDM
12. CBJ
13. PHO
14. CHI
15. LA


Anything seem odd? The fact that Montreal is currently on pace to finish 12th is quite shocking, while it should be noted that 1 points seperates 8th and 11th in the East, with Toronto just .2 points back for Carolina for 8th. In the West, SJ falling to 7th is surprising, while the rest seems pretty normal. Here are my predictions for the standings, based on my own thoughts.

EAST

1. BUF
2. NJ
3. TB
4. OTT
5. PIT
6. ATL
7. NYI
8. TOR
9. CAR
10. MTL
11. BOS
12. NYR
13. FLA
14. WAS
15. PHI

WEST

1. DET
2. ANA
3. VAN
4. NAS
5. MIN
6. SJ
7. CGY
8. DAL
9. COL
10. STL
11. EDM
12. PHO
13. CBJ
14. LA
15. CHI
