Winnipeg Jets are the 2024-25 Presidents’ Trophy winner

Oilers 4 – Jets 1 They lost the battle but won the war, the Winnipeg Jets were beaten for the first time this season by fellow Western Conference playoff bound Oilers at The Peg, but the Jets mathematically earned the “Presidents’ Trophy” for the NHL 2024-25 regular season.

With 114 points and one game remaining the Jets are also the number one Canadian team in the NHL for the 2024-25 regular season earning them the resurrected “O’Brien Cup” presented unofficially from Buffalo Winter.

Lightning 7 – Sabres 4 Buffalo scored twice in 15 seconds during the last 23 seconds of the first period to take the 2-1 lead, Captain Dahlin earned two (50, 51) assists for the game, and defenseman Clifton scored his first goal of the 2024-25 NHL regular season.

Buffalo plays their last two games of the 2024-25 NHL regular season this coming Tuesday (Toronto Maple Leafs 7pm) and Thursday (Philadelphia Flyers 7pm) nights at home and the Sabres will sport their Brawny Black & Red sweaters during the last game of the season.

Despite not making the playoffs, with their solid performance during this month’s games I think that the Buffalo Sabres team gave their fans a reason to be hopeful for next season.
As for my team: With two games remaining in the regular season, the Toronto Maple Leafs currently have 104 points which in actual fact is not very far behind the Winnipeg Jets, one of my least favourite Canadian teams. (In the 2023-2024 season the Leafs finished with 102 points under HC Sheldon Keefe.)

Thank you for the kind words about my Sabres.
As for your and my team’s last two games, Sabres vs Maple Leafs 7pm tonight!!
Well, one of your least favorite Canadian teams won the O’Brien Cup this season.
Fantasy is just about done, I am still enjoying managing my team.
Soon, it will be time to cheer for Toronto in the opening round!

You did extremely well in his 2024/2025 regular season contest with being in 5th place overall in the standings. I am much further down.

You are too kind, I do not believe 5th place falls under, “extremely well”, lol, but the compliment is appreciated, thank you.
Additionally, I appreciate the invite for Anonymous, and I will see if she would like to play.
