Going out with a whimper at home such a Tory’s move.

 

[DancingPanther]

Just checked in and not only are they losing but Ovechkin scored

Can it get much better?

 

[snoop88]

1 ECF appearance let alone 1 SCF appearance in 20 years of having Ovechkin on your team is pretty sad honestly. Caps are a bit of poverty franchise.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

This is the type of game that puts the spotlight on the lack of high end talent with this roster. They may come back and win the game, but it sure doesn't feel like it's coming.

****

That Red Wings second goal.

 

[Chicken N Raffls]

Hell of a try by Tippett there

 

[Turin]

Damn you guys have to root for this every game?

 

[Rebels57]

The Red Wings and Penguins both losing but it not mattering because the Flyers lose 1-0 at Home is the funniest outcome possible and therefore the most likely.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Damn you guys have to root for this every game?

Try the last decade essentially.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Has their goalie had to make a big save yet ?

They got to cheer for the greatest goal scorer of all-time, won a Cup, and were a top team most seasons. They're feeling okay about it im guessing.

We haven’t won a cup since 1976. I’d do anything just to win one at this point.

 

[Rodu58]

They're just conserving their strength for the final push

Anything huh?

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

With a reg win they could pass more teams and we'd be force fed the idea of Torts being a mastermind for willing the team into the play offs. Having to watch them play any more hockey in this god forsaken season sounds more like a nightmare scenario to me.

Different scenario but in today's landscape of sports betting, this would surely gain extra attention:

April 5th, 1970. The Chicago Blackhawks score 5 empty net goals en route to 10-2 walloping of the Montreal Canadiens. Needless to say this game was one of the more bizarre games in the history of the NHL!​

​

Montreal needed a win or a tie in this game in order to leap-frog the New York Rangers in the standings and qualify for the Stanley Cup playoffs. But failing that, the Canadiens also held another tie-breaker over the New Yorkers based on the rules of the day. Even with a loss, Montreal could still make the playoffs as long as the team scored 5 goals in the game against Chicago.​

​

You see, Montreal and New York held identical 38-22-16 records. At that time the next tie-breaker was goals scored. Montreal could lose against Chicago 20-5 and still make the playoffs as long as they scored 5 goals.​

[Tripod]
