The Sens lost is not good, that means the Rangers won and they are 1 win away from a WC now. In a race, the horses in front of you aren't the ones who are dangerous to your position, it's the one behind you that are.

I hate the Sens!

It's been a long time since the city's buzzing about the Habs.

I'm sitting in a McDonalds on the West Island, listening to a table of middle-age & older men furiously debate the team's playoff chances. It's crazy and wonderful! I came thisclose to walking over and giving the old fat dude an infraction for insulting the other guy.

17-5-1 since Laine return. At very least we should play over .500 rest of way.

Plus if they end up missing out on the playoffs this season I can guarantee the whole locker room will be pissed that they missed out due to an awful start to the season. Give them a full offseason to stew in that anger and hopefully they come into next season shot out of a cannon.

Starting the season like that is how the Habs have collapsed by mid-December for over a decade or two. Just running out of energy after half a season.

It’s gonna be a dog fight between 8 or 9 teams in the Eastern Conference. Glad that the Habs are in the famous mix now, but I would not bet my house on their chances to make the Playoffs.

Too bad the Habs dropped a couple of games vs Chicago and the Rangers. Even the game vs Columbus was winnable at some point.

6 minutes left in the game and the Devils lead the Bruins 4-1. But CBJ is leading TOR 3-0.

My preferences tonight!

Habs regulation time victory - put us 7 up on Red Wings
Sens regulation time victory over Boston - We keep pace with Ottawa, but Boston fall 2 points behind both of us with more games played.
Carolina with a reg win over Jackets - Both of Ottawa and us jump them. Moves back into wildcard.
Flyers in reg over Rangers - Creates 4 pts spread with Rangers who have same number of games and 2 point spread with Flyers who still have played on more game than us.
Ducks over Pens in regulation put Pens 6 pts back of us with a win for us.

Utah over Minnesota - puts Utah 2 pts back of Flames
Vancouver over Edomonton - put Vancouver 1 pt ahead of Calgary
Blues over Vegas - puts Blues 1 point ahead of Calgary
*if**
Flames lose to Buffalo
