Things have started settling a little more in the playoff race, although there are still a lot of things to determine. The only playoff team in the East whose position is solidified is Buffalo, in fourth. The Western Conference, however, is just about ready to roll. So far, the playoff matchups will be first-place Detroit versus Edmonton, and fourth-seeded Nashville against number-five San Jose. #2 Dallas and #3 Calgary need to wait and see what happens with the Ducks and the Avs in each team's last game, as Colorado is just a point behind Anaheim.

Stay tuned.
