[LegionOfDoom91]

Red Wings are done.

 

[BigToe]

Red Wings are done.

Not yet bb

 

[GKJ]

Red Wings go down 4-1, good grief.

Compher scores now

 

[Kelmitchell2]

Red wings shit the bed

 

[MacDonald4MVP]

Stammer got to 40 goals. 19 on PP and another 4 with goalie pulled. Dude's still a decent triggerman even if he goes quiet for rest of the game.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Boston hasn’t hit double digit shots on goal yet with the second period almost over.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Having to wait until Wednesday knowing the Isles very well could be resting all their top players could be a funny twist though.

The Pens choked their season away against shit rosters last year. Some fanbase is going to be bemused after Wednesday's game if the Flyers can beat the Caps.

 

[DancingPanther]

So far so good! Icing on the cake would be the Red Wings coming back. Imagine

 

[Kelmitchell2]

Cheering for the caps, pens, islanders, and redwings tonight

 

[GKJ]

Predators back to 3-2

 

[TheKingPin]

Preds still no PP. Hopefully they get it done

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

That’ll do it.

Flyers will win tomorrow and Pens will eliminate them on Wednesday.

 

[PALE PWNR]

Could the flyers/capitals tie breaker ACTUALLY come down to goal differential?

 

[TheKingPin]

Looks that way. Isles will likely rest players.

 

[GKJ]

Could the flyers/capitals tie breaker ACTUALLY come down to goal differential?

Yes.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Could the flyers/capitals tie breaker ACTUALLY come down to goal differential?

Both teams should play 6 on 6 with no goaltenders

 

[Magua]

Both teams should play 6 on 6 with no goaltenders

Wait. The Flyers play with a goaltender?

 

[ajgoal]

Detroit gets a third. Now down 4-3. DeBrincat from Ghost and Maata.

Could the flyers/capitals tie breaker ACTUALLY come down to goal differential?

It doesn’t matter. Penguins are easily going to get at least a point.. and then steamrolll the Islanders to get in. Flyers will literally miss the playoffs by a point when Torts was chiming in all year “don’t ask me about the power play…”

Not to mention all the OT auto-loses this team has had with Torts' terrible line deployment.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Boston has rolled all four forward lines tonight. Not a huge discrepancy in ice time line to line.

 

[freakydallas13]

Isles winning their game, they will absolutely rest players their last game against the pens.

 

[GKJ]

Isles winning their game, they will absolutely rest players their last game against the pens.

I don't know about that. You can't just vacate your roster. And Sorokin will start the game.

 

[orangecrush8]

Back in the Hak years, pretty sure the Flyers clinched in 2018 against the Penguins with many of their regulars out, including Jeff Zatkoff in net.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Maybe the Islanders will play the game to win and relish keeping Pittsburgh out of the playoffs
