In the Western Conference of the NHL, it’s full of surprises. Mostly Vancouver. Where the hell did that come from? Winnipeg’s surge is a close second, but the Canucks? Good god…
With the increasing feistiness and dazzling displays of talent throughout the league, there will be plenty of drama to go around in the final months before a champion can be crowned. From the highs of title defenses to the doldrums of despair to sudden panics after long-range skids to everything in between, this video has it all… mostly.
Yes, I am still very, very late. Super late.

Got to love using music from Streets of Rage 2
Never watched NHL a day in my life, yet here we are
Good breakdown on the Jets and touched on my number one concern about the team which is the Canadian economy and the inability for the fans to actually afford to support the team where it counts, at the box office. There winning ways might just save them but I wouldn't count on it. My advice to them would be to lower the price of beer at the concession stand as Winnipegers will opt to stay home otherwise & deny it at the same time. Go Jets Go!!!
Pekke Rinne is standing on his head so much, he's starting to moonlight as a contortionist!
Man tree, you really like using the background music from streets of rage 2…
The Jets' attendance dive was likely inevitable. Winnipeg's economy fell off and all but 15% of the Jets' season ticket base consists of personal accounts, which isn't sustainable. The other 6 Canadian franchises enjoy much stronger corporate support. I hope the modern iteration of the Jets won't have to relocate like the old Jets did.
Yes, I noticed the Ace Combat music during the ad, Tree.
As an Oilers fan, I think the west is as deep as it’s ever been. 7 teams deep in my opinion, gonna be a meat grinder in the playoffs.
Will say that Mrazek has been great for the hawks and now that Bedard is back, the power play is competent
As a die hard Canucks fan, I’m just as surprised as you are.
whoever is putting in ace combat music is based
Man, Francouz can't catch a god damn break.
Not many goalies have been in the league for 5 seasons, own a .919 lifetime sv% but, have only managed to play 73 games in those 5 seasons.
Great commentary and insight🇺🇸🏒🇨🇦
Welcome to the next level Calgary Flames Family Circus
My dad called the Wild during the 2015 playoffs the “Minnesota Mild” and I’ve never found a more fitting name since.
salt lake? nah, the coyotes are gonna follow the purple beam for salvation, and maybe give the sharks a kick in the butt to be better. Go Sac-town Yotes!
BRUCE! THERE IT IS
Why am i not surprised Pierre-Luc Dubois is continuing to be a fucking cancer.
Anyone here just to see Tree’s reaction to the Canucks lol (Minny notwithstanding)
Come back to Atlanta, Jets! We have a new arena waiting to be built!
Move the Coyotes to Austin. Austin FC is killing it here
The Arizona Coyotes need to move to Kansas City!!!
Streets of rage music niice
Calgary fans are finally realizing what we knew about Markstrom.. almost always lets in the first goal.. lets in too many softies.. and the team always starts off playing from behind which throws every game plan out the window..
Ace Combat 4 music in the beginning. Been a while since I've heard that before
@UrinatingTree … What is the video game music during the Canucks segment? It is driving me crazy! It's a Genesis game (I think), just can't remember which!!
For the Jets this year it has been a surprise, as for the attendance scare I’m glad it was a minor factor however they do need to not expensify the process for games. They do need to adapt like figure out what to do going forward to not make the same mistake twice.
Ace combat 04 music?!?!?!?!?
Props to you Tree for showing my longtime VPN provider some love!
