I'm not sure it's accurate to say we need to go (insert record here) to make the playoffs. We don't know that. Tampa is looking to go on an unstoppable winning streak. I don't think 7-4-3 or something like that is frankly going to be good enough to make it.
It's not over if they can't win tonight, but it's almost over. We utterly ****ed up during the California road trip. Got one point and lost all 3 games. Then we got on a win streak to even that out. We can't make it winning 3 and losing 3.
They have to beat Tampa or it is basically over. Boston isn't slowing down, Tampa isn't slowing down. The Islanders are a clear threat as well. The Leafs have to play their best hockey of the year or they aren't getting in.
If they can't beat a team they are directly battling for a spot, that's it.
