MB ain't selling, even if we 10 points out at the deadline, the man is too stubborn
What about 14?

We have four 4th round picks. Big deal.He will trade Jordan Weal for a 7th round pick in 2022 and Christian Folin for a bag of pucks.
2 points out of what?2 points out, love my team and management go Habs go I believe
We’re 8 points out of third in division, with the leafs who have a game in hand. We lose the tie breaker so we need 9 points plus the Leafs to lose. Oh ya, Florida also does and they’re winning 2-1 right now against San Jose.Currently we're 8 points out of the playoffs.
The Leafs have a tough week: Pit, Pit, Car (and then Tampa the day after the deadline)
We have: Det, Was, and Ott (and then we have Vancouver after the deadline).
Will we "gain" ground or "lose" ground?
If we win all 3 and the Leafs lose all 3, we're 2 points out.
If the Leafs win all 3 and we lose all 3, we're 14 points out.
What's your prediction: How many points will we be out of the playoffs by next Monday (The Trade Deadline)?
(Note, how many points we are out could still shape MB's strategy).
There is zero chance we’re four points out because other teams are still playing.This week, however, could be huge for the future of this organization. If we're 12 or 14 points out at the end of the week, at the high prices vets are going for, MB could potentially sell Tatar or Petry for a suzuki or Brannstrom type piece. If we're 4 points out that's out of the question.
Very big week of hockey coming up. It's irrelevant what you or I would do. What matters is what MB will or won't do if we're 4 points out. So what matters is how many points we'll be out this Sunday.
But will have to cover the freight for the pucks. Key part of the tradeHe will trade Jordan Weal for a 7th round pick in 2022 and Christian Folin for a bag of pucks.

If we go the wild card route, we’re 9 points out, 10 with the tie break and Philly has two games in hand.
At this point math doesn’t have anything to do with it. Some are in a place where Bergevin is a messiah who’ll blindly follow the team and think they’ll eventually turn it around.
This has become a clown organization where they can only lose 3 more games this year, but instead they’re willing to risk their two oldest players to long term injury for a negligible chance at making the playoffs? It’s negligent and irresponsible, and disgraceful they wouldn’t look out for the players’ best interests. So keep supporting your team to win when they play Price 3 games in 4 nights and Weber when he’s not 100%. We’ll still be here on the other side called reality.
It doesn’t matter how many points we’ll be out by the deadline.
???There is zero chance we’re four points out because other teams are still playing.
I don’t get it because it doesn’t matter, we’re already out?Actually if you re-read the original post and the other posts in this thread, you'll see that this thread has nothing to do with suppoeting the team. The question is how many points WILL the team be out of the playoffs, not how many points do I or you or anyone else WANT the team to be out of the playoffs. It's a faxtual question, not a matter of emotion or opinion.
And this is a very important question. If we're 12 points out of the playoffs and the prices for Tatar and Petry are as high as they seem to be, MB may trade them and we may get another Suzuki like piece to build around. If we're 4 points out, I highly, highly doubt MB trades them. That thy're playing Weber would indicate that.
This is a huge weekend of hockey. Re-think your position on the significance of how many points we're out of the playoffs in that light.
I don’t get it because it doesn’t matter, we’re already out?
I think you’re thinking too much.Not in Bergevin's eyes. And he's the one who's going to decide whether or not to trade Tatar or Petry at the huge prices that may be offered. It's not you or I that will make those decisions. So that we think it's better to plan for the future than for a futile playoff push is totally irrelevant.
I think you’re thinking too much.
I love how everyone ignores Buffalo, they will finish ahead of us.
We have four 4th round picks. Big deal.
But we do have chicago's second round pick which will be pretty high.
You keep saying we can be 4 points out. We can’t be. Every other team has to lose every game this week and it’s impossible. we have to sell, end of story.How so? Does it take more than half a brain cell to know that MB's strategy is to still try to make the playoffs?
Is it a far reach to think that if we're 4 points out of the playoffs on TDL day he'll continue with that strategy?
Is it a far reach to think if we're 10 or 12 or 14 points out that may change his strategy and he may decide to take huge offers for Tatar or Petry?
Big week coming up. Fasten your seat belt. We may be 8 points out. We may be 4 points out. We may be 12 points out and have another Suzuki like prospect to build around. We'll find out this time next Monday...

Habs go 2-1 and a Leafs go 1-1-1.
Gain a point leaving them 7 points out.

WOW. That's the second funniest thing I've read today.The playoffs, this team is perfectly constructed for playoff hockey and can make some noise if we get in go Habs go
