Pre-Game Talk: Flyers @ SENS, Today 1pm

Nothing game?????

How many games do we need to win/lose to play the Leafs in the 1st Round???????

4 hours to g0 :fight:

WC1 locked in. We cloud technically pass FLA if they lose out and we win out. Tampa could also pass TOR.

Playoff matchups are probably locked in short of something unlikely like CBJ overtaking MTL. We probably have Toronto.

We can't move so it doesn't matter what Ottawa does the rest of the year, we're 7th. Toronto has a 4 point lead with 3 games left, so that's tough to make up. Tampa would get the tie breaker if they do manage to make up that difference. If there's still 1st place or home advantage on the line between TB and Florida, they are playing each other on Tuesday in Tampa. That will be a good game to watch.

Let's just say it's highly unlikely that we'll see anyone other than Toronto at this point though

To add some numbers for numbers people. Money puck has Ottawa's odds of finishing in WC1 at 97.8% and Toronto finishing first at 92.3%.

Montreal can tie us but we have tiebreaker so they can't catch us.
We can tie Florida but they have tiebreaker so we can't catch them.
We can tie Tampa and we have tie breaker so that's the only way we can move into div3 spot. Tampa would have to lose all 3 games and we would have to win all 3 games.

If that's the case, how many players do we rest? I wouldn't recommend to rest all 3 games, but a rotation, with some call ups from Belleville. So many choices fo this GM......

We don't have the tie breaker with Tampa either, it's regulation wins, not all wins. They have 5 more than Ottawa. Everything depends on if Tampa can pass Toronto, Florida can't

With the cap situation, it might have to be "internal" rest, like dropping minutes for top guys and giving more to uhhh Adam Gaudette

We'll tie Florida in regulation wins if we win all games remaining in regulation, and then we'll win the tiebreaker with the higher regulation + overtime wins. If Florida loses both of their next games in regulation.
