HF Habs: The official 2023-2024 tank thread

[The Great Weal]

Wings with a massive win after choking their 4-1 lead meaning they will still have their season on the line against us. We need 3/4 points with the Sens getting 0/4 for us to pass them. We need 2/4 and the Yotes get 0/4 for us to pass them. The ideal scenario is Arizona wins tomorrow and we lose in regulation on Tuesday to lock up 5th last asap.

 

[CaptainKirk]

Now if the Coyotes can beat the Flames in OT tomorrow, I’ll be real happy.

 

[sukimono]

Hopefully the Rangers or Bruins will be sitting players when Ottawa faces them, we should be facing a desperate and motivated Red Wings team.

Yeah them defeating the Leafs combined to a possible Pens loss and they are now in full command hopefully we lose em both.. i doubt it.

 

[rahad]

Detroit better not chock like they did with Toronto. Sick and tire of those OT point. We need to lose both to be 100% of finish 5th.

 

[habsfan891]

At least Detroit won so they should be going full out Monday

 

[Jabba11]

Let's gooooo! Detroit will want to fight for a playoff spot till the end!

 

[LaP]

We now need 3 points against Detroit to pass Ottawa if they lose both their last two games. If they win one game we can't pass them.

 

[26Mats]

- Sole possession of 1st
- Wings are back in a playoff spot going into their final two games against us!

-THE JETS PICK ON THE OTHER HAND...

If Arizona win tomorrow, we can win one if the last 2 games and still get #5

 

[Heffyhoof]

The Captain delivered. Suzuki and his totally legitimate shot, along with Caufield, has nabbed us a very important tanking advantage going into the final 2 games.

-THE JETS PICK ON THE OTHER HAND...

Need Canucks to win tonight to move ahead of Jets in standings...

 

[Zilo44]

If we land pick #5 it’s the best of both world. We never stopped competing and still land a top 5 pick. We were never outsucking SJ, Chicago, Anaheim and Columbus.

OT here we come! We already at 14 OT game played.

 

[McGees]

Would be great if everything goes correct that we are able to win the final game of the season with a bang.

 

[LaP]

Would be great if everything goes correct that we are able to win the final game of the season with a bang.

If we lose the next game in regulation we can't pass Ottawa and Arizona would just need one point to secure our top 5 so that's possible since Arizona play Calgary next.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Still in 5th. Detroit needs to win both games versus Montreal to have a chance.

Basically if Detroit wins both games against Montreal and Philadelphia beats Washington on Tuesday, Wings are in as long Pens lose to Bruins tonight (Pens losing 4-2).

Detroit will come hard on Monday.

100% habs will be playing two playoff games...
wings need to win both. Even if pens lose tonight, they have that game in hand

 

[LaP]

Things people should consider too is Arizona play their last game at home which will be their last game in Arizona. They'll give everything to win that game and it will be a meaningless game for Edmonton on the road.

 

[Benstheman]

Good night for the thank. That Ari-Calgary game tomorrow night will be huge.

 

[LaP]

Good night for the thank. That Ari-Calgary game tomorrow night will be huge.

Only way we can pass Calgary now is if we win both games against Detroit and Calgary don't get a single point in their last 3 games so a win in OT by Arizona would be the perfect result. Calgary has 10 more RW than us crazy.

That game in hand Pens are playing right now against the Bruins. If they lose to Boston, maximum points is 90.

Detroit can get to 91 by beating Montreal twice. They then want Philadelphia to beat Washington either in OT or regulation. That will leave Washington with a maximum of 90 pts too. Detroit can't win tie breakers against anyone.

Pittsburgh is making a bit of a comeback. It's 4-3 Bruins with 11 minutes left.

Also a legit test for Hutson.

 

[Adam Michaels]

CGY only needs 1 point in their final 3 games to be mathematically out of reach, which would guarantee a Bottom-7 finish, and at worst 9th OA.

McDavid is chasing the 100 assists....We never know. I just hope they beat Calgary in OT.

 

[Gustave]

Pens lost so this is the best outcome for us because Detroit will play for something huge on the back to back.
