Playoff race/Scoreboard watching thread

[CBJWerenski8]

There's still 16 games left, not that long ago Montreal went through a rough stretch and really looked like they were out of it, yet now they are only 1 point behind Rangers for the 2nd wild card spot while having two games in hand, having gone 7-1-2 in their last ten.

This is a horrible time to lose three in a row, but it's all still very much in their hands, CBJ also have played 2 less games than the Rangers and are only 2 points back. NYR actually have worse P% than either Canadiens or the Jackets.

The schedule is brutal. Even the favorable matchups come on unfavorable terms (like Pittsburgh who is now hot, and the second half of a back to back). I get your sentiment and I agree in theory it isn’t over, but it’s pretty over in my eyes.
