I think pittsburgh will clinch if they win in regulation tomorrow? and they will be tied with us if they lose with two games left crazy stuff.

Right now as it stands...
We have 3 games remaining, with 93 points currently and 34 ROW.
This means that at best we finish the season at 99 points and 37 ROW.

Of the teams ahead of us:
Boston has 95 points and 37 ROW (therefore magic number of 4 plus 1 ROW to clinch - we have second tiebreaker: 6 points to 4 points gained in H2H, dropping first Boston homegame as it's the 5th game)
Detroit has 95 points and 37 ROW (therefore magic number of 4 plus 1 ROW to clinch - we currently own third tiebreaker by +5GD, second tiebreaker is a tie at 5 points to 5 points in H2H)
Pittsburgh has 95 points and 38 ROW (therefore magic number of 4 points to clinch)
NYI has 98 points and 39 ROW (therefore magic number of 1 to clinch)

So yes. If Penguins beat us in Regulation that'd be a 4 point swing and they'd clinch as would NYI. Also both Boston and Detroit at that point would only need 2 points to punch their tickets.
