Boosh!
As a Hawks fan, the thing to do right now is follow the West and figure who will land the five seed and play them in the first round. Chicago has a comfortable lead on the 4 spot, with most of their remaining games at home, but I don't think they'll catch Detroit. If they had taken a game or two from them earlier it would have made things more interesting.
I'm hoping either Dallas or Vancouver lands at five. The Hawks have done very well against these teams this year. Minnesota gives them a hard time. 5-12 or so is very closely bunched, so it's too early to project who goes where. I do think that Detroit will pass SJ for the #1 seed.
San Jose has a 5 point lead with a game at hand... and there's only 21 games left in the year, it would take a major collapse for Detroit to catch them.... especially with how shaky Detroit has been lately.
