lol apparently Sportsnet originally had Kings v Sharks scheduled today, but they canned it

@Real_ESPNLeBrun
Team of destiny into the playoffs thanks to 21-3-3 stretch to end the regular season. Who wants to play these guys?

That is just crazy. Leafs are two of those loses haha.

That's a ridiculous stretch record, especially considering that 1 more loss could have resulted in them missing the playoffs.

 

[GSG Flash]

I kind of want to see the knee-jerk response from both teams

Why can't we have both?!

Also there's almost no chance the pens lose to the sabres

No need for the Sabres to tank anymore, they might come out hard like the Flyers did

Woot flex scheduling after all

Maybe on Saturdays only

 

[Pogonip]

Surprised to see Calgary is resting so many of their players considering they could still take home ice in the first round with a win vs. Jets and a Vancouver loss tonight vs. Oil (as unlikely as that sounds, it is the Canucks vs. bottom feeder so it actually could happen...)

 

[ShinRPGamer]

So Sens-Gaf, who do you want to face in the first round, Montreal or Tampa Bay?

Stolen shamelessly from Twitter:

At least the Maple Leaf kid has legs.

 

[fallout]

Mark Scone is my favourite Ottawa Senator.

 

[GSG Flash]

The guy I'm happiest for is Bryan Murray, this might be his last playoffs ever ;_;

 

[MetatronM]

So now we're looking at:

Montreal vs. Ottawa/Detroit/Pittsburgh
Tampa Bay vs. Ottawa/Detroit
Rangers vs. Detroit/Pittsburgh/Boston
Washington vs. Islanders (home ice TBD)

St. Louis vs. Winnipeg/Minnesota/Chicago
Nashville vs. Chicago/Minnesota
Anaheim vs. Winnipeg/Minnesota/Chicago
Vancouver vs. Calgary (home ice TBD)


....I think all of that is right.

Fuck

What a year that man has had. Cancer and his team is still going strong.

....I think all of that is right.

With the two points Ottawa can only face Montreal or Tampa in the first round.

 

[MetatronM]

Yeah, I already caught that and fixed it. Oddly, I had it right earlier and then just went stupid when I wrote that.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Tampa vs Ottawa would be fun.


Same with Boston vs Montreal.

 

[MetatronM]

By the way, Game 1 of Rangers-Red Wings/Penguins/Bruins should be on Thursday, with Game 2 on Saturday.

That's unofficial right now, but the Knicks play on Wednesday, and there's a concert on Friday.

 

[KernelPanic]

Tampa vs Ottawa would be fun.


Same with Boston vs Montreal.

Ottawa vs. Montreal would be an entertaining bloodbath. Both here and on the ice.

All salt and no rispek,

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Tampa vs Ottawa would be fun.


Same with Boston vs Montreal.

Boston can't face Montreal in the first round. It's Rangers or bust.

 

[ZeroGravity]

So even if Boston makes the playoffs, they have to cross over into the Metro division. Nice.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Boston can't face Montreal in the first round. It's Rangers or bust.

Damn it.

Ottawa vs. Montreal would be an entertaining bloodbath. Both here and on the ice.

All salt and no rispek,

I don't wanna face Ottawa

 

[Kave_Man]

Ottawa vs. Montreal is what's best for NHL-GAF.

The salt levels will be so high.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Damn it.

I don't wanna face Ottawa

Then hope Carolina can pull through against Detroit in regulation.

 

[Buba Big Guns]

Man I am hoping to God we play the Habs. Already got game 4 tickets and the CTC will be epic.

 

[Red_Man]

Happy for Bryan Murray, this must be amazing for him to watch after the year he's gone through. If Therrien can get fired from a first round loss I'll be cheering for the Sens harder than Cake Boss.

You know deep down Therrien won't be fired.

 

[Parch]

Nice. I love it.
The Leaf kid should be running in the wrong direction.

 

[Red_Man]

You know deep down Therrien won't be fired.

Let me have this dream for now.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Seems like we mailed it in.

Oh well.

GO BUFFALO

 

[zroid]

Ottawa vs. Montreal is what's best for NHL-GAF.

The salt levels will be so high.

Calgary vs Vancouver is going to be pretty sodium intensive as well

aside from the draft pick, it's Leafs-Age's reward for this season

(boston missing would be another bonus)

 

[SCHUEY F1]

God I hope Patches will be able to play.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

Did hockeystreams go down?

I can't open it up at all right now

EDIT: After refreshing for the 25th time it finally opened.

 

[T.M. MacReady]

Wooo Sens! What a shtory, Mark.


Isles can clinch home ice with a win against the BJ's in the Coliseum Regular Season Finale. LETS DO THIS.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

God I hope Patches will be able to play.

He skated today during practice.

 

[InvaderZimmer]

The push to the playoffs graphics during the sharks kings game is painful.

 

[jello44]

WELCOME TO THE PLAYOFFS OTTAWA!! WE NOW HAVE 5 CANADIAN TEAMS IN THE PLAYOFFS!

And not one will win the cup!

 

[Parch]

God I hope Patches will be able to play.

I keep thinking Montreal needed one more top 6 forward at the trade deadline. If they're down this important one, it definitely won't be easy.

 

[ActStriker]

Let's go Sabres
Let's go Sabres
Let's go Sabres

This game is painful to watch. Looks like everyone's phoning it in

nBC commentary doesn't help

 

[Marvie_3]

Congrats Sens-age

We should of gotten Jagr. Bottom Feeders Like Flynn and Mitchell weren't Necessary.

Push To The Offseason

Not entirely sure how the Wild didn't score about 3 times there.

 

[Socreges]

And not one will win the cup!

Whatever helps you sleep at night, Flyers fan

[Indrid Cold]

Good job sens. Now someone knock out the Bruins plz.

 

[Marvie_3]

Good job sens. Now someone knock out the Penguins plz.

Fixed.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Yup.

Hopefully DSP will get better.

 

[Marvie_3]

Versteeg back on the top line tonight. Great.
