Standings- position

If the playoffs were to start tomorrow , 6th spot would ideal place for the leafs to finish at , only because southern division most likely be weakest out of 3 but I'm not saying its a easy division, more like our equal. I'm not seeing us going any higher than 4th and that might be a stretch but who knows . 8th and 7th spot would be toughest to be in to get out of 1st round with a win .Sorry guys ,no leafs hockey on so I might as well speculate  :)
 
I think that the 4th-5th spot is possible.

I would like they to face Montreal or Ottawa in the opening round, so a win could bring some strong confidence in the playoffs.

Also it would avoid Boston, Carolina (we kind of suck against then) and Pittsburgh (Please no Crosby or Malkin in the 1st round).

They play the toughest division with:
Boston (30)
Montreal (30)
Ottawa (28)
Leafs (26)

and hopefully all 4 will be on the dance in late april/may.

But as the LA Kings did it, the important is to be in the late season dance!
 
I would prefer if the 4 Canadian Teams made the playoffs, did not face each other in the first round, won each of their 1st round series, guaranteeing a Canadian team in the Stanley Cup finals.  It would be nice to see Bettman pull the rest of his hair off his head.

What would be a close second is if the Leafs could scratch their way into the top 4, guaranteeing the first round starts in Toronto.
 
I'm not really a fan of the standing position.  It was fine when I was younger, but now my knees are starting to get bad and....Oh!  Um, yes, well - ahem - yes, I think it would be best if the Leafs finished 6'th.

I agree on all counts.

As for Bettman's, he'd need a hair transplant, but maybe he should get a brain one first!  8) ;D

Bettman would not qualify for a brain transplant.  Having a brain transplant would indicate he had a brain in his head in the first place, which we know is not true.
