It took a bit longer than expected - thanks for the suspense, Columbus - but we've got our 16 playoff teams. That means we've also got our 16 teams that missed, and those fan bases have a choice to make. Stay neutral, and just root for the best playoff hockey possible? A very valid option. Root against your team's rivals, and hope they lose in a way that makes them sad? We've all been there. Sit on the sidelines and sulk, acting like you don't even care who wins? A bit unseemly, but understandable.

The NHL playoffs are back, or will be in a few days. And that means it's time for the annual playoff prediction contest, an incredibly simple single-question test that you will almost certainly fail. We tried this last year, and readers seemed to enjoy it. A few of you even did reasonably well. But there were not many, and that was in a year when the postseason didn't serve up many surprises.

Welcome to the last Weekend Rankings of the 2024-25 season. Longtime readers know what that means: You're getting a top 16 instead of a top five, with every playoff team ranked. We'll also check in on what the Gold Plan standings would look like in the bottom five, and we'll even make a few oddly specific predictions.

The theme of this post is kindness. As in, let's be kind to the fans of the league's worst teams. It's easy to forget these days, as some fans watch their teams fight for a playoff spot and others are already thinking about the Stanley Cup, that not all of us are having fun right now. Some of us cheer for teams that are already out of the playoff hunt, and in some cases might have been for months now. That's where the kindness comes in.
