Who wins the Atlantic?

  • 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 think Florida. They are in the lead now and are still getting Marchand added in at some point, and also Tkachuk maybe for a couple games .

They are not in the lead.

They are tied with Toronto in points and after Sunday the Leafs will have a game in hand because Florida has a Saturday and Sunday back to back against Washington and Pittsburgh then They don't play again until next Friday and then It's Utah, and then a Montreal and Toronto back to back.

They are not in the lead right now not really.

I don't think Florida makes it - our blue line is depleted with Ekblad and now Kulikov out and we'll obviously be missing Tkachuk for at least the rest of the regular season. We'll keep our head above water but will be grinding the rest of the season out.

Ottawa is playing really well so I can see them upsetting any team right now. So however the standings play out, there won't be an easy opponent to play in the first round. From a narrative perspective, my personal hope for maximum entertainment is that we face Toronto in the first round to give Marchand the opportunity to beat them again :D . And then face Ottawa in the second round for the Tkachuk-bowl. TBH, any of these match ups would be fun.

This is a BIG night in the Atlantic.

All 3 of Toronto, Florida and Tampa are in action.

It's possible we could have a 3 way tie at the top by the end of tonight.

I am interested to see what happens tonight between Florida and Washington.

Florida is missing 20% of their team but Washington has already clinched so do they take their foot off the gas.

They are easily in the playoffs unless they lose out, I know they are beat up but that's not going to happen.
 
At some point, all these additional playoff games that the lighning group and Panthers group have played over the years compared to the lack of playoff games for Toronto has to catch up to them. In tampa's case it already has since their three consecutive finals. Florida has had two consecutive finals as of today.
 
one happened 21-26 years ago, players are all retired,
the other happened 1-8 years ago, with main core all the same.
I assume that means you won’t be bringing up ottawas fluke run or playoff results as well then. Unless of course up is down and down is up.

It's a trap. The Lightning have gone out in the first round the last three playoffs so they could get rested up for the big push this year. Go Bolts.
