  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
    • Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

I wouldn't say easily. Sens play them extremely well. Leafs D have issues with their speed & Tkachuk's physical play in front.

It works either way for me. If Sens get the regulation win, Leafs very likely drop to 3rd in the Atlantic and lose home ice advantage in 1st round, and likely are out of contention for Division leader. They really wanted to win that this year. Berube made it a key team goal to avoid one of TB/Florida in 1st round. They held it pretty much all year, but have let it go with spotty play post 4 Nations.

Add to that, Ottawa would move to 4 pts back of Toronto. Laffs would be in actual danger of falling into a wild cat spot. Lol Fans would absolutely be flipping. OMG. That would be hilarious. Leafs fans are calling this game a "must" win for them.

If Ottawa loses & Montreal wins, Montreal moves to within 3 pts of them & plays them on Tuesday to try & get within one point.

Per usual, we want a regulation win here.

We also want CBJ to win in regulation over NYR. CBJ are 20-7-4 at home.

Montreal can't get into a playoff spot tonight as one of CBJ or NYR will get to 72 pts.
Why does Columbus need to win? Never mind. Saw your post above. Only argument would be that the Rangers are probably the stronger team and have better goaltending, Just want it to end in regulation.

I know Florida's the hottest team in the league right now, but the timing of 3 of our matches against them coming while they have Tkachuk out injured and Ekblad suspended couldn't have worked out better for us.

every bit helps. Hoping we can get some PPs tonight and give ourselves a fighting chance. Big night for Xhekaj-Savard, Anderson, Slafkovsky, Heineman. They need to play heavy
 
Who does everyone want to win the Columbus Rangers game tonight?

I'm leaning Columbus. Even though they have the better point percentage, they've been overachieving significantly and the Rangers have been under achieving. I'd feel much more comfortable chasing Columbus than the Rangers. And the Rangers are way out ahead of us when it comes to regulation wins.

Columbus.

Just want them to make the playoffs after the offseason they had.

New Jersey lost today, so there's a chance the BJs could catch them, knock them down and it might be easier for the Habs to pass them given their injuries.

However, New Jersey has the weakest schedule left and only 5 away games.

Preferably NYR but no 3pts game. Habs have a game in hand on Strangers.
