OOT Scoreboard 2024 25 Season Part II

[It Takes 2 To Tango]

The bar for the playoffs is low in the East and there's two obvious weak teams that are going to make it this year as well as a Washington squad that is a bubble team masquerading as a Presidents' Trophy contender. I don't think it will be hard to get the Rangers back in the playoffs, but their time as a top team is probably done unless Shesterkin turns back into prime Hasek or one of their young guys breaks out into being a star.

I’m fascinated to see how Washington does. They’ve tailed off late. Just a top team going through the motions late in the season or is it a classic case of reverting to the mean? Their team shooting percentage seems unsustainable especially come playoff hockey. But they may get a wide open style Montreal team round 1. How I wish the Devils were healthier. The path through the East is there.

Oilers with 8 expected goals last night, marone. Dostal with 6 goals saved above expected after giving up -3.6 against VAN.

Edmonton bent them down very but it looks like MoneyPuck blew a fuse. Other sites have Edmonton with almost as half as many xGF.

Protas was huge part of their 5 on 5 play. So it will be hard for them.

 

[Patrik26]

Montreal 3-1 with about a minute to go.

UPDATE ... 4-1

 

[Bleedred]

If the Predators get a win tonight it will be the first time in a very long time that they will have gotten a win in a game they probably weren't expected to get a win in.

Well, they did beat Toronto and Carolina. Those were their two most recent wins. Currently on a 6 game losing streak and have lost 7 of their last 8.

 

[Forge]

Insane comeback by Vancouver. Down 5-2 with a minute to go in the game and end up winning in overtime

 

[NjDevsRR]

Crazy comeback in Nashville. Preds score two late to tie it 6-6

 

[jkrdevil]

Predators score twice in final 3 minutes to tie the Islanders

Was watching lmao f***ing crazy

 

[Whaddagoal]

Crazy comeback in Nashville. Preds score two late to tie it 6-6

Something we needed all game long.

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

Beyond insane comeback from Vancouver, that's the best comeback I think I've seen and then Nashville does the same to the Isles

 

[Devs3cups]

So the Isles losing (even with a point) helps us in the sens that we would now clinch if NYR lose tomorrow correct?

 

[NjDevsRR]

Another crazy comeback complete, Isles lose

 

[Patrik26]

Fishsticks blow 2 goal lead with about 4 minutes left and lose in OT.

 

[jkrdevil]

Preds win in OT!

That eliminates the Islanders from catching the Devils.

Devils can clinch before Friday’s game if either the Flyers or Islanders beat the Rangers Wednesday or Thursday. OR if the Rangers win both games in OT.

 

[NjDevsRR]

So the Isles losing (even with a point) helps us in the sens that we would now clinch if NYR lose tomorrow correct?

Yes sir. Down to us or Rags. 1 pt either direction we clinch

Or if its both OT wins for Rags (Reg wins tiebreaker)

 

[Mgd31]

That was an absolutely soul crushing ending for the Islanders, holy shit.

Now only the Rangers are left.

 

[Devs3cups]

Yes sir. Down to us or Rags. 1 pt either direction we clinch

Or if its both OT wins for Rags (Reg wins tiebreaker)

So basically Rangers loss either way (regulation or OT) and we’re in? I see!

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

One of the Flyers or Isles will beat the Rags, especially the Islanders after what they just did. Nothing better for the Isles to knock out the Rags officially out of the playoffs

 

[Better Call Sal]

Lmao how did the Islanders lose that game? I turned it off after they scored the shorty to go up 6-4.

 

[NjDevsRR]

So basically Rangers loss either way (regulation or OT) and we’re in? I see!

Thats why we have 99.8% odds lol

 

[NjDevsRR]

Now watch the Stars highlights lmao

Crazier than you can imagine. Nashville got a bench minor right afterwards for complaining about the missed high stick that led to the 6-4 goal that made it 4 on 4. Then Horvat immediately took a hooking penalty. Preds pulled the goalie to make it a 5 on 3 and scored. Then scored again on the 6 on 5 goalie pull. Won in OT.

 

[NjDevsRR]

canes devils stars sens leafs looking like jabronis tonight; on WWE night!

 

[Bleedred]

So now we just need the Rangers to lose just one more point and we’re in?

Yes? Correct?

Cause the Jackets and Islanders can win out and tie us in points, but we have many more regulation wins and then they can now get and win e win the tiebreaker? Only the Rangers would currently have the tiebreaker if they win out and we lose out?
