Yahoo's Puck Daddy breaks down the prospects for each of the NHL's Western Conference playoff hopefuls.

I just wanted to drop this in here quickly before I head out for the weekend, as I'll be following things remotely against Los Angeles and Detroit (Game Day Preview and Game Threads will be here as usual).

I also wanted to thank all of you who stop by and make this all worthwhile. Sometime this evening I expect this site to hit the 20,000 hit mark, in just over a month of operation. We're just getting started, folks, there are some exciting developments in store in the weeks and months ahead! Have a great weekend, and GO PREDS!
