Kucherov and Johnson both leave the TOR-TBL....Dun Dun Dunnnn!

Edit, Johnson returned.

5-1 Crapitals lost.

Useless Crapitals. Plummet out of the playoffs you fools

 

[Jakeybonz]

well what do u want? columbus is the legit wild card team. we arent. in all honesty its the devils that are the weakest team in there. I've been waiting for their meltdown all yr. hope it happens in epic fashion to end the season and we luck into an undeserved 8th seed and all of tampas stars get injured and we win a round for the first time in 22 years. that's the dream

CBJ will go 1-3 in their next 4. If Florida goes just 3-2, 3 back with 3 in hand. If CBJ does well on their road trip its bad news but most teams struggle out west.

Yes! Playoff watch thread.

Hopefully so but looks like CBJ is getting hot again after a really bad stretch.

Blue Jackets added three inconsequential pieces at the TDL. You either go for a homerun (Tampa Bay, San Jose, Winnipeg) or you stay pat (Florida). Last time the Panthers did what Columbus just did, it didn't work out so well (Hudler, Purcell, Kindl).

Was really hoping for Pacioretty, but hey, that's life.

If it takes a committee to replace Malgin's production, so be it.

I mean, it's only 20 points.

Bigger than any acquisition the Panthers could have pulled off is the health of their core players. Gotta be grateful for what we have. I feel like this is being casually glossed over.

Not following the 20 points, I'm getting old and senile...
Didn't he play through a punctured/collapsed lung and cracked ribs?

The distance separating Florida and Boston in the standings, I'm guessing

The distance separating Florida and Boston in the standings, I'm guessing

Yup

 

[Gentle Man]

Go Boston (Vs Carolina)

Go Pittsburgh (Vs NJD)

Barf

We play the Devils soon also. Technically not out of reach either.

 

[PSLguy]

Carolina ahead of Boston 1-0 in the first.

 

[Boothinator]

Carolina ahead of Boston 1-0 in the first.

Now 2-1 Canes

Devils tied up at 1

 

[Gentle Man]

 

[PSLguy]

Boston/Carolina tied at 3 after 2. Pitt/Devils tied at 2 after 2.

I mean, it's only 20 points.

We do play the Broons 40 or so times in the next month and a half.

Catching Boston is honestly beyond unlikely. It's all against the Devils and the Blue Jackets.

Fun weekend ahead:

FLA:
VS NJD (both rested)
VS Buf (Sabres rested, Florida b2b, Reimer time)
VS PHI (rested Florida vs Flyers on 2nd of b2b)

CBJ:

@LAK (both rested)
@Anaheim (CBJ on 2nd of b2b, rested Anaheim)
@SJS (both rested)

Calling it now, 3 points out on Monday with 3 games in hand. The Sabres game scares me, I do not trust Reimer.

Man, looks like St. Louis is doing a face plant.
