NHL playoff standings: Who will win the Central Division crown?

The race for the regular-season division titles is down to two teams in the Atlantic and Metro, and perhaps already won by the Vancouver Canucks in the Pacific. But the Central is our focus today, with two teams tied in standings points at the top and another just four behind.

Who will ultimately earn the division's No. 1 seed?

The Colorado Avalanche are currently in the top spot, with 97 points through 71 games, and 38 regulation wins. In second are the Dallas Stars, with 97 points through 72 games and 33 regulation wins.
