The Playoff Push Tanking and Scoreboard Watching Thread

Watching this game. Anaheim is beyond bad in this game. Their goal was not exactly lucky, but close to it.
Imagine actually rooting against your supposed favorite team during the most exciting part of the season. Screw Calgary and Vancouver, and anyone rooting for our rivals.
Yea we got a lot of help tonight. Losing to Pitt was rough, this pushed us back up.
16th pick here we come. Can’t lose to bottom-feeders like the Penguins and expect to run down a playoff spot.
Binnington turned into a pumpkin at the absolute worst time on Thursday night. Imagine he would like at least 2 of those goals back if not 3. Absolutely need 4 points this weekend.
Tonight is a must win game against the Wild. Unfortunately, we also need the Hawks to beat Vancouver.
Also looks like I’m back to the California name until this board figures it’s shit out.

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives
Even if the Blues miss the playoffs, they are still playing meaningful hockey.
This obviously does not mean too much but here is what the standings will look like after next week if the expected winner of each game (according to moneypuck) wins:
Blues: 79 points in 72gp
Utah: 77 points in 70gp
Canucks: 73 points in 70gp
Calgary: 71 points in 69gp
I understand that this isn't THAT meaningful. We all did just watch the Blues lose to Pittsburgh as favorites of course. However, it is interesting that the Blues are expected to win 4/5 next week, with their only expected loss coming to Nashville interestingly enough, which is a very winnable game. Meanwhile the Canucks and Flames are both expected to lose all four of their games. Utah is a real dark horse in this race and is not a team we can ignore. They are expected to go 4/4.

This team loves playing down to other teams (see San Jose last year, vs Pitt the other night)
I won't be surprised to see Trashville or Anaheim dunk on em
If we can take care of business against our weak ass schedule, we can most definitely make it.
Also, Parayko’s re-evaluation date lines up with Game 1 of the 1st round.
