I agree. Each game will be a battle. At least the scoring is going and some PP success. I’d feel a lot better if they cruised to a dominant 4-1

My apologies Datsyukfan… I seen the explanation in the other thread. I thought you were talking out your ass. My bad.

this team doesnt deserve larkin. His genuine affection for the organization is so palpable that it hurts that he's been on this mediocre team for the majority of career. he deserves the playoffs.

Caps have more RW so they have the tiebreaker no matter what.

No, we have 1 more win then them, 39-38. They have 3 more regulation wins than us, 30-27.

Yeah i'm getting that now. I was looking at it logically and taking wins for wins and losses for losses, if they both win out, Wings basically finish 41-41 and Caps 40-42 but the Caps still get in over the Wings seems pretty shit. This factors into the whole loser point system and whatnot which i've never really been a fan of.

They hold their own destiny now with the B's 6-4 win just have to win both games against Montreal which is possibly but makes me super nervous. At least they are facing Matthews again. Hate to admit it but damn the guy is dangerous.

On the plus side, Montreal is battling like 4 other teams for their draft slot so they have every incentive to lose those games.

Perron was so good this game. I hope we keep him.
Raymond has evolved into a beast, every game he looks better.

Raymond is playing for his contract. The real test will be next season when he will be in his first 7M+ year.

They don't control their own destiny. If Washington win their 2 remaining games, the wings are out no matter what.

What about all the other games where Perron was useless or taking bad penalties??? He has largely been bad this season.
Maybe they rest of some their better players who may or may not be nursing small injuries? They also have some prospects h they may want to give a bit of NHL experience too.
Indeed. The goaltending has been mediocre to ok all season long expect the hot streak by Lyon. We need a bit better goaltending.
We scored 5
Good call
I have never seen that much net open. I still think it is good to be aggressive sometimes
He is 7-2 in his last 9, Lyon is 1-10.
I won't be surprised if he starts the next one.
Yup - that and heaping praise on DeBrincat - like thanks for finally scoring some goals dude…

You dirty dog!
Just watched the game and WOOOOO!
Big, BIG win. Seider showed that nasty side that I love to see and the boys held it together after blowing that three goal lead. Was a nail biter, but love that anxious feeling that comes with playoff hockey. I'm hungry for more. Take care of business vs Montreal and the rest will take care of itself.

Long day and night of gaming, grilling, and yakking with friends. After my buddy left at 3am I thought - "I'll watch the game and finish my cigar and see what happens."
What a ride! Still in it to win it!
Funny part was when I was selecting the game on the ESPN+ menu I caught a thumbnail below the main games saying "Kane wins it in OT". So I thought I might be in for a long bit of painful awful. Then the 1st period happened and it's 4-ish and I thought "Hell, I'll pour a drink to celebrate - that thumbnail must have been a clip from the Chicago game."
Then the 2d period happened and I thought "Oh. I guess that WAS from tonight's game" and settled in hoping for OT. Then in OT I kept watching Kane and instead it's D-Boss! Woohoo!
Now it's 6:15am. I think I'll hit the sack for a bit.

Wings have a way to make playoffs even if Washington matches them in winning final two games. Caps and Wings both have tiebreaker over NYI. so NYI (in that scenario) would also need to get more than one point from their final two games to clinch Metro 3. If they lose both in regulation, Wings could get in with 3 points from final two, unless Pittsburgh also gets to 90 points and beats them both out for WC2. I think I have that right.
