[philb613]

Anybody ever been to a game in philly? Might make the trek down tonight after work.

If the Pens lose today things could get very interesting.

Nothing changes really, we still need that 1 point.

Pittsburgh last game is against Buffalo (guaranteed 2 points)

 

[muffin with tentacle]

It would still be nice to see Pittsburgh lose today though. Lowers our odds of getting the Rangers, right?

Control our fate to get the second seed

The Islanders are going to be pumped for this game.

Really? Ask the Kings about that when they played the Oilers on Tuesday.

That would raise the odds of getting the Lightning. Dilemma time.

 

[BankStreetParade]

What's crazier?

That we made up 16 points on Boston since Feb. 10 or that we made up 20 points on NYI/PIT/DET in that same time frame.

This run is something special. Really, really special.

 

[SanderSen]

On TGOR they said the CTC will be open to the public to watch the Sens-Flyer games tomorrow. What is the best section to sit in to watch the game on the big screen?

 

[krapsik]

Well, Pittsburgh is not LA and Buffalo is not Oilers. I predict easy 2 point for Pitts.

If the Pens lose to Nyi there season is over more or less.

 

[jason2020]

Well, Pittsburgh is not LA and Buffalo is not Oilers. I predict easy 2 point for Pitts.

If it comes down to beating Buffalo I predict as easy win for Buffalo.

Yes, several times. About an 8 hour drive. Cross over at Ivy League bridge (1000 Islands), then I-81 (NY) which turns into 476 PA all the way until hitting Philly and the I-95.

That would raise the odds of getting the Lightning. Dilemma time.

Habs need just 1 point vs Leafs to clinch 1st Wild Card as their opponent. So if Pittsburgh ***** the bed and we don't, we'll play Habs most likely.

If they make the playoffs we'll be talking about this team way longer than we were talking about the injury plagued 2013 pesky Sens.

 

[ColinM]

Well, Pittsburgh is not LA and Buffalo is not Oilers. I predict easy 2 point for Pitts.

Columbus will probably beat Buffalo tonight. By then the Sabres will have clinched last place so I wouldn't write the Sabres off.

Sine then, we have gotten 47 points, while Toronto has only gotten 17

Sine then, we have gotten 47 points, while Toronto has only gotten 17

Over an entire season, we'd be on pace for 128 points.
Leafs would be on pace for 51.

Notice the Rangers were not so dominant, they can be beat. I don't care who Ottawa plays, I just want them to make it in. This team will be a headache for any first round opponent.

****ing incredible mid season turn around, I've never seen anything like it before.

Yup a few times. I think they have the xfinity live entertainment district there now though. Didn't have that the times I went.

It also goes to show how hard it can be after digging a hole early in the season.
