Better for a prospect to be overripe when brought up than under ripe and have his development/confidence stunted.
Yea, like these guys

Depending on how we make it (ROW, SO, who we give points to, etc) it can vary, but:
51 points gives us a 41-45% chance of making it.
52 points gives us a 66-73% chance of making it.
53 points gives us a 87-91% chance of making it.
If Carolina continues to lose, that number becomes smaller and smaller.
52 is a safe bet to get in. Right now we're on track for 7-6-2 in our final 15 to give us a total of 53 points and put us comfortably in the 7th seed.
To maintain 6th, we need 57-60 points, which means 8-3-4.
Given our records against Carolina and Winnipeg this season, I would prefer the 7th seed to the 6th seed so that we can face Montreal, a team that Marty tends to dominate historically.

I'd say go 500 and we're in. We could probably lose every game in OT for the rest of the season and get in. Not that I wanna see that happen, but 52 points is a good place to aim for. Unless Washington or Carolina goes on a hot streak, and the Jets still keep up their pace which puts two southeast teams in the playoffs. Then Buffalo does their annual ''We're gonna trade Ryan Miller!" and then proceeds to go on a hot streak, and decides to keep Miller. Before just missing out the last few days of the season.
Oh great we got the Isles again. I hate losing to that POS franchise. I also am a rebel to the ''Devils respect the Isles cause we hate the Rangers'' mentality too. While we're at it lets just respect the Pens since we both hate the Flyers. **** the fishsticks hard.
i am w/you on the islander/devils friendship. i hate losing to that team! hate it. i simply cannot respect them.
Interesting game last night... Sens deserved a point for the first, whereas you guys deserved a point for badly outplaying the Sens the rest of the way. I guess I'm glad it ended up in OT, although neither team really deserved 2 since both teams could have comfortably put it away when they had the upper hand...
My biggest takeaway from that game was Loktionov. Don't really know much about him but I'm walking away impressed. He seemed to be a better player than his historical stats suggest. Is that a fair assessment or did he just have an out-of-character game?
Good luck the rest of the way. Hope you guys (and any 2 other teams) pass the Leafs!

If it were the Islanders of old, I would despise them. But since it's Islanders of new, I tend to cut them some slack... Unless we are playing them. Then I dislike them greatly. If I remember correctly, we tend to not do so well against them. Or any other low-standing team for that matter
I don't really like any teams in the east.
I don't hate them at all. They're just sort of "there."
And I think we get into the dance, it it'll come down to the end..just keep finding ways to collect pts.
I like the Senators and Maple Leafs. Indifferent to the Lightning, who are probably not going to make the playoffs for a few years (imo)
In the west, I like the Flames and Blue Jackets, but I may have to start hating Columbus if they're going to be in our division next year
