10/10 meme

will probably only see the third period of this one unless i wake up earlier than that...want to watch Bedard's game 7...starts at 2am my time - will see how it goes.

I hope the Rangers can get some more offense going against Buffalo than last time. They're not good at defending at all so would be nice to pile on some goals.

Will be there tonight.

Kinda want Buffalo to win out and sneak into the playoffs. Don’t really care about the last couple of games.

Dahlin and Thompson are fun to watch.

We are locked into that 3rd spot, so just have to stay healthy at this point. These last two games are going to drag.

not so locked if the teams in front of us flounder and we win out. we can actually still get home ice, which is insane.

I'd rather try to conserve a little bit of energy, though. good thing there are 4-5 days "off" before the show starts

I just looked at the Standings and I thought the Rangers were 4 points from the Devils. We would have to win out, and the Devils lose one more game. So it’s possible.

Edit. I’m wrong, Devils would need to lose both of their games. They would have the tiebreaker if they win one more game in regulation.

Even if they win out, they aren't getting in. They have too many teams to jump over and not enough games left to do it.

I'd rather play well, win and keep the team rolling.

We would need to win both games in regulation, and the devils would need to lose one game in regulation, and not win the other in regulation. That would give us 39 RW and them 38 RW.

Casey -f***ing no pull ups, no bench press, embryonic ass looking face, Pittsburgh Penguin looking ass face- Mittelstadt with 9 pts in his last 5 games, ey?

Never ever again draft based on heart, grit, intangibles or some other shit. Draft for actual tangible skill.

 

[romba]

Buffalo has something to play for which is nice, don't want to get lulled to sleep by so many hapless opponents right before the playoffs.

Not locked to 3rd.
Even 1st could happen.
But requires unlikely longshot combo of just-right events.

 

[tomobson]

Must win.

 

[Row I Goon]

Stay focused, boys

 

[duhmetreE]

Dahlin and Thompson are fun to watch.

CONGRATS on your first original thought! I'm so proud of you. I knew you could do it.

Isn't it refreshing?

 

[DanielBrassard]

Should be an entertaining game at least. I'm interested to see how Kane looks, I thought he was moving around the ice way better after he had those 2 games off.

The Jackets I think played a large part in how effective our guys looked. A team with NHL talent pressing the envelope would have made our guys look alot different.

We have 106, NJ has 108, and Carolina has 109. Carolina has one game in hand.

We could technically still win the division.

You might care if we meet Toronto in the ECF.
No?
