Thornton's injury. That last angle looks real bad for his leg/knee. Ouch.

So the Flyers have officially been eliminated from the playoffs. Always nice to be the ones to knock them out.
The Rangers finally won at home, their first win at MSG since February 19. And they STILL nearly gave this one away at the end. They've also hit the 100 point mark for the third season in a row, the second time that's happened in franchise history.
And with 3 games left in the season, I believe it is now impossible for them to catch up to third place in the Metro (even if they won their last three in regulation and ended up tied with the BJs, the BJs will win the tiebreaker on goal differential).
So that means the playoffs right now (highlighted teams are locked into their finishing positions):
Senators @ Capitals
Blue Jackets @ Penguins
Rangers @ Canadiens
Maple Leafs @ Bruins
Predators @ Blackhawks
Blues @ Wild
Flames @ Ducks
Sharks @ Oilers
The Western Conference's 8 teams are now set, just a matter of jockeying for position. The Habs are basically two points away from clinching the Atlantic and finally officially locking in that matchup that's been looking inevitable for half the season now.
Also, I foresee this gif getting a lot of use in the playoffs:
At the very least I expect to use it a bunch. :/

You just know the sweep is going to happen
also, with the Canucks home loss the the Sharks tonight that's their franchise record-setting 11th loss at home in a row.
Yotes won too, we're coming for that 2nd seed in the draft and thus 5th overall pick!
shut up smelly
... I meant the Hawks sweeping the Preds you doofus
And I meant shut up smelly 😬😬😬😬😬
yeah well I hope Creeper does to your car what he did to Calamari's son
Thats fucked up. Even for you.
The car I gifted him has the insurance fully covered, I knew what Creeper was capable of

Thanks god hope they fucking realized what a joke they were and we have a full season of quick. Still blows my mind how they are first in GA and not make the playoffs.

Is Sutter going to be fired this offseason? Two years of Kings missing the playoffs.
do you really though? Don't you think they'll just go with the "close one! we'll try next year we have a good core we'll keep building on what we have" excuse?
Seeing how the fanbase has grown out of that bullshit excuse and this season's ticket sales are the lowest they been since Melndick took over, I can see some more changes coming.
God I hope so at least.
oh right if tickets are down you're correct, money speaks
or they'll just up the prices of hotdogs

I tried, but it won't let me edit your posts.
Melnyk leaving is the most important change you guys need.
Did you forget last season's playoffs?
Missed two out of 3 and were bounced in the first round last year. Not a great run the last 3 seasons.

Franson would be a huge upgrade over Polak, that's for sure. Andrew Nielsen is having a pretty good year for the Marlies, though. He might be ready to go next year.
