Minnesota’s fate is going to come down to their final 3 games ironically enough unless they flip their script pretty soon here. They play us and Vancouver as 2 of their last 3 games. NHL’s script writers really nailed that one.So… can we catch Minny?![]()
Yeah I watched the last 10 min today and a bunch of the second period. The fact the avs couldn't score more than 1 is definitely black magic.Avs gave it everything but the Blues summoned their 2019 luck. That’s it for catching St Louis.
Got to hope the Wild continues to fall
Or the Oilers, they only have 2 more point than the WildThe playoff spot the Flames are fighting for is the Wilds spot. Has been that way for about a week now.
Yeah well the Flames blew their chance last night with themOr the Oilers, they only have 2 more point than the Wild![]()
The 9th and 10th worst teams are on pace to end the season with 81 and 82 points respectively, Calgary has 80 points. Even if Anaheim takes us and every other team behind the woodshed in a Cinderella run, the current 11th worst team is on pace for 84 points. That ship has sailed, so if you’re rooting for missing the playoffs, you better go to the lottery sim.Best shot at bottom 10 at this point is if we lose both games to the Ducks. Eastern WC race is so tight that we could very easily be passed
Playoff ship has sailed
No it’s not that extreme yet. Calgary needs to win their games in hand and win the Minnesota game. Those are the musts. In the remaining 7 games, they just need 1 extra win than Minnesota. So if Minnesota goes 5-2 the rest of the games what you said is true. Any other record affords us more losses.Essentially, if we lose 2 games, over the final stretch, we're done. Stranger things have happened but the chances are almost nonexistent. The Blues heater pretty much killed any chance we had of limping into the playoffs.
The Wild have 87 points, with 8 games remaining. Using their P% over the last 10 games, which is worse than their season average, they'll finish with 96 points. We have 80 points, with 20 potential points on the table. Since we're unlikely to beat Minnesota in a tiebreaker, we need 17 points. It's exactly that bad.No it’s not that extreme yet.

Easy way to look at it is we need to win the Minnesota game, and have 1 less loss than them for the remainder of the games. Minnesota sputters and goes 3-4, we need to go 6-3. It’s tough sledding, but we aren’t necessarily doomed if we lose a couple games.
Worth noting our next 2 games are b2b with travel so Utah is a "scheduled loss." Not that that will prevent the team from trying to win or anything facing the Avs and then packing up to fight Utah the next night is pretty rough. An hour and a half flight isn't too bad but still, that's probably exhausting.The Wild have 87 points, with 8 games remaining.

I'm saying, 5-3-2 is probably a pretty realistic expectation. That'll leave us 16th-17th in the standings.Worth noting our next 2 games are b2b with travel so Utah is a "scheduled loss."

IMO the 2 games vs the Ducks are probably the most crucial. We win those we might have a chance of getting in, we lose them we might have a chance of picking top 10, if we split them we're probably screwed.
