NHL Standings

[charlio lemieux]

The Playoffs are getting closer, and I was wondering if it was possible to view the standings by playoff position?
You know, by overall Conference as well as by Division.
Thanks.

[Newfie John]

Good idea, but I dout its possible.

[Mel]

It's definitely possible. When I find the time I can try to work that in as an option.

Right now, My hosting provider's move has been wreaking havoc. If you've not been able to get on in the past 5 days or so... that's why

In addtion my script to retrieve the stats broke - I'm gonna try and fix that in the next few days.

If I can find the time, I'll do it

If it is possible Mel, it would be a nice feature to incorporate after the Olympics, when the playoff chase should heat up. I remember that the Sportnet site (not the forum) had that feature in its team profiles stating where a team was and who the oponent would be if the playoffs started today.

[charlio lemieux]

Abracadabra - There's some time for you Mel. :D

That's actually why I mentioned it now, so there is the Olympic break to figure it all out.
Good Stuff. Looking forward to it.

[Max Power]

Good idea
That would be a better view

You know, if the margerine man doesn't have time to do this, you can get that information here:

ESPN (http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/standings?season=2006&group=conference&column=playoffs&order=false&seasontype=2)

I'm sure the margerine man doesn?t have time to do a lot of things but is that really our problem? :conspire:

If he's not going to come through on the hockey ticket giveaway or the free trip to Tahiti then I say at least make the forum look respectable so I don?t feel dirty when I enter it

[butterfly_style]

. . . so I don?t feel dirty when I enter it
Isn't that part of the appeal ?

[Max Power]

Isn't that part of the appeal ?

If I wanted to remember my dirty days I'd ask NJ to tell me about his weekend
*zing*

[Mel]

How about, rather than changing the standings... I'll put a smilie next to each team....

:groovy: <--- conference leader

:boogie: <--- division leader

:nod: <--- in playoff position

:box: <--- fighting for playoff position

:no: <--- better luck next year


:pimp:

[charlio lemieux]

I was thinking along the lines of adding a third view. But if smilies are all you have time for, they'll do. You could put the pimp beside teams that have cliched a spot. Just out of curiosity, Carolina is first overall in the East, so would they look like this, :groovy: :boogie: :nod: or just like this :groovy: ???

[Mel]

I was jokin about the smilies

I will give a few more view choices on the standings.

(maybe I will offer a smilie option just for goofs :laughing:)

[charlio lemieux]

Some smilie options perhaps?:D
:hammer: Ottawa -- :hammer2: Toronto -- :eyebug: Buffalo -- :shrug: Vancouver

:eek: NY Rangers -- :rolleyes: Atlanta -- :curse: Philadelphia -- :cry: St. Louis

:pimp: Detroit -- :boogie: Nashville -- :snore: Chicago -- :king: Carolina

:talkhand: Pittsburg -- :burning: Calgary -- :doh: Boston -- :clown: NY Islanders

:nod:

Is it wierd that I'm proud of this?:no:

[charlio lemieux]

:thumb: Great Job Mel!:thumb:
Above and beyond, for sure. :boogie:

[LiAmTrAnSdEmOn]

Yeah, I'm definitely lovin the new look with the playoffs and the playoffs 2. Nice job Mel.

[PDO]

Great job Mel, looks really nice.

[Madferret]

C'est tres super skip..

[Mel]

glad you guys like. :nod:

[Max Power]

I've noticed the new post color does not seem to appear in the new view? It could just be me though?
I do like this new view... Thanks for the setting it up Mel

[Newfie John]

"Playoffs 2" is the one I'm using for showing the standings.

[butterfly_style]

Excellent work, Margerine Mel.

I like the playoffs2 version as well.
Maybe as each team is mathematically eliminated from the playoff picture, you could include a:
