Definitely impossible. If they can go into Minnesota and shutout the hottest team in the league, then they really can do anything. I've given up on trying to be positive about the OOT scoreboard. What I've learned that anything bad can and will happen. Especially if you tell yourself it can't.
EDIT: This may sound crazy, but Wild fans seem to think that the team is starting to slip off their pace. Their last three games are STL, CHI and NSH. They are now three points up on us, even on games. It's possible that the Wild are, once again, right back in this race.
Make that 4 spots for 5 teams now. And we're still behind the 8 ball because we have to face the ****ing Kings.
