Desired results for tonight:
- MTL win vs. CHI
- PIT reg. loss to FLA: PIT reg. loss + MTL win = MTL moves ahead of PIT. They'd be tied in points, but MTL have a game in hand + more RWs.
- OTT reg. loss to STL: OTT reg. loss + MTL win = MTL moves 1 point behind OTT.
*A MTL win coupled with a PIT regulation loss means MTL could end the night ahead of CBJ, PHI & PIT and be the top team that sits outside the Wild Card spot.*
*If MTL lose, but lose in OT/SO and pick up a loser point. They'd still end the night ahead of CBJ and PHI. In such a case, they'd all be tied at 38 pts, but MTL has a game in hand on both of them. But they also have more RWs than both.*
