Out of Town Scoreboard 2017-18 season II: Playoff Push

[Brick City]

Well gotta say, if Florida takes this, credit where credit is due. DD did call that and was roundly mocked and yet here we are. The slightest falter by us and we would be outside looking in.

EDIT: Boston of course scored while I posted this so now naturally I have ensured their comeback.

 

[NJDevs26]

lol NOW Boston wants to rally after I already did a draft for the mainboard series thread

 

[Cage Helmet]

There ain't no way that Jones is better than Rask. I know that you know that.

He’s not better than Rask. Jones is ordinary at best, but Rask really ain’t much better these days and is living off of his pre-2015 reputation. It’s just that most people don’t even care about Jones at all. He gets praise here and there in passing and got some recognition after they made the SCF, but most don’t really talk about him. Maybe a few on the main board here and there. Rask is generally still viewed as a consensus too 5-7 tender by both the media and fans alike.

 

[Devils Dominion]

Boston is all over them.

Uh oh, Riemer hurt?

 

[JimEIV]

There's no doubt he's struggled down the stretch. That's why I said he's the opposite of Kinkaid. Huge question mark whether you're getting early season Vasilevsky or late season Vasilevsky. My point is you can't really bank on them having goaltending as a crutch because he still has all the talent in the world and he's not the guy you want to see get hot.

I think Tampa is going to be discussing if they over played Vasilevsky this off season.

 

[Bologna 1]

Feels like Boston has at least one goal left in them. At the very least I bet this goes to OT. Unless reimer can insanely stand on his head for the last 8+ mins here.

 

[JrFischer54]

Went to check the score thinking I would see a 5-2 Boston lead. I’m amazed Florida came to play. They could’ve even packed it in before last nights game. Just think that otl to the pens put us in. Or a single loss to Ottawa by the panthers and we aren’t in.

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Think how bad we’d be pooping our pants if we needed Flordia to lose this game? My god...

 

[devilos]

Ugh why you no try yesterday Rangers? This would have been sweet if Philly's spot was on the line.

 

[Darkauron]

lol

 

[Bleedred]

Reimer has a big ass.

Do you really need to wear a size 54 waisted pant you f***in BUM?

You're wearing a pair of pants that must feel like you're dragging cinder blocks, no wonder you're hurt.

 

[JimEIV]

This all looks staged

 

[TheUnseenHand]

Think how bad we’d be pooping our pants if we needed Flordia to lose this game? My god...

If FLA needed to win this, they would be up 6 or 7-1. They have carried play without even trying that hard.

 

[Blackjack]

Boston's classy fans booed Reimer off the ice.

I think Rask might be in the top 10, but not top 5-7 anymore.

 

[Bleedred]

Boston's classy fans booed Reimer off the ice.

I'd be cheering him if I were them and they eventually win this game.

He gave them the game last week with his soft goal hat trick.

 

[Zippy316]

Was largely from the first half of the year...

The last 25 he hasn't been good.

65 games is new territory for Vasilevsky and he hasn't handled it well at all and it only get tougher now.

He said several weeks ago in an interview that he was feeling tired as well.

 

[MadDevil]

Boston needs both points to pass Tampa, right?

 

[MauDevils]

FLA could miss the playoffs with
96 points. Just crazy.

He also said there was no way we finish above Florida.

He was completely wrong for having more faith in Florida then NJ.

This "what if" stuff in here is a loser mentality .

We earned our spot. We needed no help. It wasn't luck or a fluke

 

[Emperoreddy]

Boston needs both points to pass Tampa, right?

Yes. Tampa has the tiebreaker

 

[glenwo2]

Boston needs both points to pass Tampa, right?

Yes. They could tie this but if they go to OT and lose, Tampa is our next opponent.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

If I hear "Spoked B" one more time, I might throw my TV out the window.

And a few of us also said that the NJD would be in the playoffs and they would miss. So I don’t care about their worthless moral victory. The Panthers might be more relevant in this thread than they are in South Florida.

 

[Bleedred]

FLA could miss the playoffs with
96 points. Just crazy.

And it actually looked like 90-92 points would be enough to make the playoffs in the East, only about 6-7 weeks ago. Maybe even less than that.
