Which End Of The Rainbow Is Your Team?

With the NHL regular season starting to wrap up, the excitement builds around the who finishes first who finishes last in the regular standings.

Teams like the Edmonton Oilers, Toronto Maple Leafs, the New York Islanders and the Carolina Hurricanes are looking for that elusive 1st overall pick at the 2010 draft. Well not quite the Leafs, it's more like the Bruins are hoping for their fall as they have the Leafs 1st round pick at this years draft. Lucky them.

The Oilers are last in the NHL right now and if they stay in that spot, they will at least get to pick second overall depending on who wins the draft lottery. Most Oiler fans want nothing more than to get that 1st pick at the draft. Hall or Seguin? That's the burning question.

Now on the other side of the rainbow, you have teams like the Washington Capitals, San Jose Sharks and the Chicago Blackhawks trying to get that Presidents trophy and home ice advantage for the entire NHL playoffs. Home ice advantage is huge for a team. The fans behind you, screaming and clapping. That's what drive the playoffs. Those rabid fans.

While home ice advantage doesn't guarantee a win at home, it sure helps.

So what end of the rainbow do you want your team to be at?
