Florida is just awful these days. 2-6-0 since their bye week and with the Habs, Sens, Sabres and Wings out of the playoff picture, they are the only threat to steal the 3rd place in the Atlantic from Toronto.
Didn't the Avalanche lose 65 games like 3 years ago? Mocking a 2-6 stretch? Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.Florida is just awful these days. 2-6-0 since their bye week and with the Habs, Sens, Sabres and Wings out of the playoff picture, they are the only threat to steal the 3rd place in the Atlantic from Toronto.
And funny enough, 4/5 of those names you listed have been injured for stretches this season, yet they are still scratching and clawing.Short of injuries to their most important players (Matthews, Marner, Tavares, Rielly, and Andersen), Toronto is going to get in. They have way too much offensive firepower.
Florida is more of a threat for a WC spot (four team race for 2 spots- CBJ, PHI, FLA, CAR) than Toronto's 3rd spot in the Atlantic. IMO.
I think WC2 will have more points than the Leafs at the end of the season but the Leafs will get in because, well, Florida.Short of injuries to their most important players (Matthews, Marner, Tavares, Rielly, and Andersen), Toronto is going to get in. They have way too much offensive firepower.

No one else is good enough in the division and Florida can’t do **** when it matters, Bobrovsky stinks.
Toronto will make the playoffs in a walk even if they don’t have a good record
Atlantic sucks
Another team should have the opportunity to lose to Boston in the 1st roundDue to that sweet sweet revenue sharing it might actually be financially beneficial for Florida to give up the ghost and let the Leafs make it.
Will the Florida Panthers continue to do what they always do and underachieve and miss the playoffs? Most likely.

The pacific that holds the two WC and don’t get to beat on Detroit/Buffalo/Ottawa 4-5 times?You should see the Pacific.

No Ottawa/Buffalo/Detroit to shit onMatthews (knock on wood) is the only player on that list that hasnt missed any games, the rest have missed an extended period of time.
We don’t have Ottawa/Buffalo/Detroit all in one
You do realize the Leafs are 1 point back of Vancouver for the lead in the Pacific?

So it's Toronto's fault that other teams in their division are horrible.The pacific that holds the two WC and don’t get to beat on Detroit/Buffalo/Ottawa 4-5 times?
I think the Pacific holds down 5/8 playoff spots in the west. Outside of STL the central is pretty packed together.You should see the Pacific.
