2017 Bruins Playoffs Odds II - Currently 74.1% chance of qualifying

[Caper Bruins fan]

don't have to worry about any team behind us as long as the bruins win their games

That likely won't happen . I don't see the Bruins roaring through the majority of their games. Actually, I don't see any of the teams currently vying for a spot doing that . Everybody will be scoreboard watching right til the very end .

Tampa Bay has a slightly easier schedule and we do play them one more time.

 

[Bruinfanatic]

That blown leed by Chicago hurts.

 

[bruinmann77]

Bruins have to play a full 60 min game.

 

[bruinmann77]

Bruins just do your job you know what on the line can't depend on other teams losing sorry

 

[Bruinator]

Big loser tonight is the Islanders who lost again at home in regulation.

Tampa Bay now appears the team to worry about the most.

Carolina is 4 points back with a game in hand and have at least a point in 11 straight games. They don't worry you?

 

[bruinmann77]

Canes are not going to keep this up imo

 

[Dellstrom]

Too bad TB came back. A loss by them would have been huge. That loss against them looms large now.

I'll take the Isles losing, though. Win against Nashville tomorrow and we're in good shape.

 

[bruinmann77]

I agree win tomorrow and also have to beat Tb

 

[Fenway]

Carolina is 4 points back with a game in hand and have at least a point in 11 straight games. They don't worry you?

Not yet...... Tampa Bay is more of a worry and we have to play them again.

This Tampa team IMO gets full marks from top to bottom. The Bruins had a chance to bury them last week and push them 7 points out and now they are right there. On top of that with all the injuries they have sustained this year is amazing. Jon cooper has done a tremendous job and watching all these kids come in and play at a high level is amazing. boston should have buried this team when they had the chance.

 

[LouJersey]

Bruins need 5 out of the next 6 to be comfortable IMO.

 

[BsEuphoria]

If your going to squander this playoff bid, please just do it sooner then later, I can't take it anymore.

Bruins need 5 out of the next 6 to be comfortable IMO.

And knowing their luck, TB will sweep the board

I agree...the last two finishes have been so painful.

No, fight until the end

Seems to me that you underestimate the Bruins and overestimate TB. At least a win in each direction.

Bruins would need to beat Nashville, Dallas, Florida and Tampa to get in the playoffs.
I can't see them beating Hawks, Sens or Caps.

Tampa should beat Redwings, Stars, Sabres easily and should take some points out of Habs/ Leafs.

Not looking good.

Easier/harder schedule means nothing. Teams need to win. And the Bruins should focus on themselves.

Bruins are gonna get passed if they are constantly peeking over their shoulder.

yep, lose by a touchdown Saturday night then this? oh I am guessing that dressing room wasn`t a happy one when JQ finished with them last night

exactly, and this is the time of year where I cringe when playing teams on the outside looking in with nothing to lose

If TB gets a few extra points I think Boston can at least squeak out an OT loss or two as well!

Hawks just squandered a 3 goal lead to the Bolts last night, they aren't unbeatable
