2023-2024 Playoff Tracker - updated after each DET game

[ricky0034]

the tough thing about the Flyers is that the Wings need to make up 4 points on them(3 but they have the tiebreaker like Washington does) and the Flyers still have 2 games against Montreal, 1 against Chicago, and 1 against Columbus left in their remaining games

their other 7 remaining games are against Florida, NYR x2, Islanders, Buffalo, New Jersey, Washington

the Wings pretty much need to hope they lose out in those non bottom feeder games at this point if they want to make it in without going on a 7-4 or better run because if they even just win the 4 bottom feeder games that already means the Wings need to go at least 6-5 to pass them

 

[SirloinUB]

Washington going 5-4-3 would put them at 92 points which would mean the Wings would need at least 93 to finish ahead of them since they also have the tiebreaker

which would mean going 7-3-1

My point is, let it play out. Detroit still has two games against the caps.

well yeah it's obviously not over yet

but I think it's fair to say that the Flyers and Capitals are both in a notably stronger position than the Wings are at this point

 

[GreatGordie9]

This road trip will determine whether we get in the playoffs or not. We may have to go 2-2-1 or 3-2.
The Isles if they win tonight will only be a point back.

 

[nbwingsfan]

The Washington team makes absolutely no sense.

 

[RedHawkDown]

Every game is a must win at this point.

Which, especially for Washington, changes if Detroit beats them in their H2Hs.

Until those happen, I can't go to bat for either team being in a better spot. Detroit is playing great teams coming into the end of the year, yes... but soon some of them are gonna be looking out for themselves and start coasting in to the playoffs, like they do every year.

Flyers are in a notably stronger position because they're 3 points up and the Wings don't have a H2H they can make up ground in.

The Wings lost their stranglehold on a spot with that 7 game tailspin, which sucks, but they're coming back hard down the stretch.

Flyers lost

 

[redwings8831]

Everyone except us plays today:

Jets at Capitals - 12:30
Penguins at Avalanche - 2
Devils at Islanders - 5
Panthers at Flyers - 6
Lightning at Ducks - 8:30
Sabres at Flames - 9

Caps won
Pens lost in OT
Islanders lost
Flyers lost

 

[Gniwder]

The Washington team makes absolutely no sense.

Lindgren their backup goalie is 20-12-5. Kuemper is 13-13-3.

 

[GreatGordie9]

Caps won
Pens lost in OT
Islanders lost
Flyers lost

Pens were up 4-0 and blew it.

 

[DatsDeking]

Lindgren their backup goalie is 20-12-5. Kuemper is 13-13-3.

AKA they’re pulling a Detroit. Getting good goaltender to smooth over their blemishes.

 

[DamonDRW]

It is us or Caps now. If we win two against them, we are most likely in. I highly doubt that though with the way Ovie is playing now.

 

[14ari13]

I don't think the pens can make it. It is 4 teams now, Flyers, Caps, Wings and NYI.

 

[theYman]

The Washington team makes absolutely no sense.

Yeah I know. We pummeled them 8-3. I think that's alot of their types of losses though which reflects there neg. GA

 

[jkutswings]

Lindgren their backup goalie is 20-12-5. Kuemper is 13-13-3.

And yet it was Lindgren in net when Detroit put up a snowman on them last month. They're a very Jekyll and Hyde kinda team.

It will be very interesting to see how each team starts the game tomorrow, with both knowing how much is on the line. Lindgren started yesterday, so hopefully the Wings can put Kuemper below .500 on Tuesday.

They will start their best goalie vs us.

 

[Detroit Knights]

If we play like we did against nashville, we will win most of the rest of our games this season. We played a pretty good game, got damn good goaltending and defense, and had a lot of chances to score. Saros >>>>>>>>>>>> like 95% of the goalies out there and he was on one that night.

 

[GreatGordie9]

We must and I repeat we have to salvage at least 5 points on this current road trip. We're 0-6 in the last six road games.

You can repeat yourself as much as you want, but nobody here actually plays for the team.

I’m convinced @Lazlo Hollyfeld is actually James Reimer

 

[ricky0034]

I know he doesn't play for the team anymore but i'm just saying.... has anyone ever seen @Bench and Ty Conklin in the same room together?

 

[FabricDetails]

And @jaster hates Madison Bowey a little too much. Just sayin'... He's either Alex Biega or Dennis Cholowski irl.
