Image of the Day www.sportsecyclopedia.com/Woe Canada As the NHL hits the final quarter stretch, there is a strong possibility that no teams from Canada will qualify for the playoffs. In the Western Conference the four Canadian teams three of which made it to the postseason last year are all at the bottom of the standings. Meanwhile in the Eastern Conference, the Toronto Maple Leafs as expected are dead last, but the Ottawa Senators and Montreal Canadiens have been big let downs. No team has been a bigger disappointment than the Canadiens who won the Atlantic Division last season and were expected again to be one of the top teams in the East. Injuries have played a role but a goal scoring drought has been the biggest obstacle as they suffered a 2-1 loss to the Nashville Predators at Centre Bell dropped their record to 28-27-5, six points out of the second Wild Card and one point behind the Ottawa Senators.
