Pens and Wings are eliminated!
All four teams are still alive, but only we control our destiny with 2 pts.

Seems like they are out every way possible without both pointsAll four teams are still alive, but only we control our destiny with 2 pts.
Disappointed?

Fever - 25:59
Alexeyev -21:24
So Caps nutritionist and PT staff need to work their best recovery voodoo tonight and tomorrow to get them physically ready

Actually, if Det and Pitt lose in regulation, we can also lose in OT and we would get in because we'd hold the 5th tiebreaker over Philly in that case.Seems like they are out every way possible without both points
Any type of loss by Detroit and Pitt gets us in if we lose in OT/SO. Pitt needs 2 points to tie us if we get the loser point, so even with an OT/SO loss they stay behind us, and Detroit could tie us with an OT/SO loss but they'd still lose on the regulation wins tiebreaker.Actually, if Det and Pitt lose in regulation, we can also lose in OT and we would get in because we'd hold the 5th tiebreaker over Philly in that case.
Its this, in summation. Win any way and we're in. Lose in OT and need help from both Pitt and Det (must lose in regulation). Lose in regulation and we're out.
Tie-Breaking Procedure
If two or more clubs are tied in points during the regular season, the standing of the clubs is determined in the following order:
1. The fewer number of games played (i.e., superior points percentage).
2. The greater number of games won, excluding games won in Overtime or by Shootout (i.e., 'Regulation Wins'). This figure is reflected in the RW column.
3. The greater number of games won, excluding games won by Shootout. This figure is reflected in the ROW column.
4. The greater number of games won by the Club in any manner (i.e., 'Total Wins'). This figure is reflected in the W column.
5. The greater number of points earned in games against each other among two or more tied clubs.
6. The greater differential between goals for and against (including goals scored in Overtime or awarded for prevailing in Shootouts) for the entire regular season. This figure is reflected in the DIFF column.
- For the purpose of determining standing for two or more Clubs that have not played an even number of games with one or more of the other tied Clubs, the first game played in the city that has the extra game (the 'odd game') shall not be included.
- When more than two Clubs are tied, the percentage of available points earned in games among each other (and not including any 'odd games') shall be used to determine standing.
7. The greater number of goals scored (including goals scored in Overtime or awarded for prevailing in Shootouts) for the entire regular season. This figure is reflected in the GF column.
NOTE: In standings, a victory in a shootout counts as one goal for, while a shootout loss counts as one goal against.
philly has more regulation wins than detroit, they’d make itSo Philly is done right? Even if they win and Detroit loses, Detroit still wins the tie breaker.
Rested with Torts as coach?Man, the really tough part are the Flyers are rested...
So the Flyers could be pulling the goalie in a tie game tomorrow? This is going to be fun
JFC. And again I say... can we just have wins and losses like a normal sport?
