No perfect outcome in the Ottawa/NYR game, but I'd prefer NYR win. That way, assuming we win, we're narrowly ahead of Ottawa and are 1 point under NYR, with the same number of games.

Yep, the better outcome is for NYR to win.
But realistically, it won't matter. Habs aren't making the playoffs.

How can you be so sure and a fatalist, when we're one point back with a mild schedule ahead?
Not saying they'll absolutely make it, but to already count them out as you just did is a bit silly.

Yeah people seem to forgot how bad the race was last year. No team was clutch

I think the Habs have more games left with Ottawa. They might even be done with nyr at this point so from a "controlling your destiny" standpoint, you probably want NYR to win too.
Plus I've already projected that nyr are going to take one of the WC spots, regardless so I don't even look at them as much.

Norlinder and Fairbrother before Alieksi and Koivu before Ilya is kinda suspect who are our Euro scouts? How did we miss these monsters.

I have to disagree here. We have 2 games left against Ottawa, that means we can knock them back twice with 2 four points game. That's control we have. We don't have any games left against the Rangers, meaning 0 control. If they get 2 points, we can't do anything about it. Worst outcome for the Habs is a win by the Rangers in overtime.
It looks like the Flyers will be out of the mix with another loss and 18 games left. I don't see how they could line up all the wins necessary to come out from under .500 after this.

Is there something more annoying than a Sens goal announced by a kid?

Man Miller really f***ed that one up.. Well that's good, all we have to do is beat the Sens with our 2 last games against them.
I learned that lesson in the 1981 when the expos were neck and neck with the Phillies in late August, the Phillies lost to some bad team like 10-0 and I said to my dad that there was no way the Phillies were legit contenders. Then like 2 days later the Expos got waxed 14-0 or something. And the Phillies won the World Series haha

When I watch Ottawa I'm quite convinced they're a playoff team. They're better than NYR, Detroit, CBJ and Us right now.
