Scenario for the last East seed.

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

Ok this took me like 30 minutes to type but I'm 99% sure I'm right, please let me know if I'm mistaken, hopefully y'all find this helpful:

Caps-Get in with any type of win vs Philly or an OT loss along with any Red Wings loss and any Pens loss. They are out if they lose in regulation to Philly.

Red Wings-Get in with a win vs Montreal and a Caps loss vs the Flyers, or an OT loss and Washington and Pittsburgh losing in regulation. They are out if they lose in regulation vs Montreal

Pens-Get in with a win vs NYI and any loss (regulation or OT) by both the Caps and Red Wings. They are out if either Washington or Detroit win. Alternatively, if they lose in OT and Washington and Detroit lose in regulation they would also get in.

Flyers-the hail mary-need a regulation win vs Washington (cannot be OT) and a regulation loss by Detroit, along with a regulation Pens loss

I’m pretty sure flyers are out.

They can tie caps in pts and RW but lose on ROW right?

Tomorrow night is going to be nuts.

No if they win in regulation they'd both have 35 ROW. They would get in by virtue of the 5th tiebreaker, head to head points.

 

[Whoot Whoot]

worst race turning into the best

 

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

Beads of sweat were dripping down as I tried to figure this shit out but I'm certain I'm right lol.

All for the right to get crushed round 1 (or maybe the next Florida?)

You can't say it's not good drama!

Thank you for doing gods work.

So we'd have the cool scenario if Caps and Flyers are tied late of Philly pulling their goalie in regulation.

Or just give the giant goalie an oar of a stick and its knuckle puck time.

I’m pretty sure that’s why they brought him in

The battle to get decimated by the Rangers

Rangers are a pretty middling 5 on 5 team. Imo they're one of the top teams most likely to get upset.

I was just going to type that up. Certainly a rare scenario

I think even if Detroit loses in OT then the Pens would be eliminated since they would both have 90 points and Wings are guaranteed to have more ROW wins. What am I missing?

 

[Cypher]

Knowing how this has gone the past month, WSH loses in regulation/Philly wins in regulation and Detroit loses in regulation tomorrow and Wednesday Pens pulls the goalie to tie it late, and all 4 teams end up at 89 points, but PITs wins the tie-breakers.

Pens would have more regulation wins which is the first tie breaker

First tie-breaker is RW.. not ROW. Pitts has more

Have you watched the Rangers play lately? There is no 3 v 3 or shootouts in the post-season.

1st tie breaker was changed from ROW to RW in 2019

The Rangers haven't decimated a team since the 2007 Thrashers

I knew I was missing something thanks everyone. Wild scenarios for the usually mundane last week. 4 teams for one spot. Ultimately I think it’s Detroit that makes it through

 

[Shesty31]

it’s a bummer that caps/flyers isn’t nationally televised tomorrow.

We know what's going to happen. The Flyers will win in overtime, satisfying nobody.
