Eastern Conference Wild Card Watch

habs will win against hurricanes on their last game unless they clintch before, if they clintch they might rest some players

 

[Zalos]

Honestly, there's no way the Habs lose Demidov's debut at HOME against Chicago. So, we're going to be in no matter what, imo.

Still, would be nice to beat the Leafs tonight. Washington is playing like shit lately, which gets my hopes up for a 1st round against them.

Do we know when Demidov gets his papers to work in Canada and US.

Nope, but it should be before Monday's game against Chicago.

 

[Super Fadio Bro]

The Hurricanes are getting their revenge.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

The Hurricanes are getting their revenge.

The Rangers' so-called talented players are getting their revenge on management, too.

Who's going to make it through the summer?

I dont know he practiced in the optional morning skate today, that's all I know

 

[Homelander]

We're eliminated

[mandiblesofdoom]

Weren't Rangers & Bruins lousy in the O6 days? I guess there were no Penguins then

 

[mandiblesofdoom]

We're eliminated

the suspense is over

 

[Zalos]

Detroit is eliminated too.

Columbus' only chance to get in is if they win their last 3 games in regulation and Montreal lose their last two in regulation.

 

[KingsFan7824]

They pulled what I'm going to call a Kevin Stevens.

So montreals magic number is 1?

I thought if Columbus went 2-0-1 both teams would have 88 pts and 27 row, is the next tiebreaker not gf?

Actually there were. They were all in Antarctica tho. Har har har

 

[Frank Drebin]

Ah ok
So there isn’t a magic number really
Montreal needs 2 points if Columbus wins out, unless 2 of 3 are in or then they just need one
If Columbus drops a point they’re done

all we have to do?

there will be no easy game until the end

Totally! I still think Habs are likely to win, but they need to treat it as a playoff game.

Pro players are proud, and don't want to watch the Habs celebrate in front of them. It's a tremendous motivator for teams that are out. They just took Winnipeg to a shootout. They have no pressure and want to play spoiler.

They’re stretching the meaning of “NHL HISTORY” here. There were many O6 seasons where Boston and New York missed the playoffs, and the Pens simply didn’t exist at all.

since 1967
has been a while

True, I wish they would just say that instead of saying “history” when 50 years of it are questionably accurate.

 

[DelZottoHitTheNetJK]

Bettman punching his black and white TV set that 4 of 6 original sixes aren't in it.

Just move them all to Texas Gary! No state income tax.

Just kidding; the Rangers would still find a way to suck

 

[Lshap]

Even more incredible, it's the first time in human history the Utah HC missed the NHL playoffs.

Between them they have 10 Cups in like 200 some odd years.
