Who from east do you want to get the final 2 spots?

[GarlicbreadTB]

The race in the east is still tight with 5 teams duking it out for the final 2 spots(Metro 3 and WC2). So which teams would you like to get those spots?

[Summer Rose]

The Islanders and Capitals would be the least offensive to my sensibilities.

 

[trick9]

Isles and Caps.

-21 and -40 have a nice ring to it.

 

[sycamore]

As a Caps fan, anyone but the Caps (yes, I'm a tanker).

Who do I think will get it? The Islanders and Pittsburgh (despite the fact that Red Wings have the easiest remaining schedule).

 

[miscs75]

Isles because of the fan aspect and Philly for the Torts factor. Torts blowing up at the press conference would be entertaining.

* Islanders. Rangers/Isles first round matchup would be epic to the point I'd try to find a way to get a ticket just to be there. The crowds will be insane. Very drunk & insane.

* Pittsburgh. Maybe Sid's "last ride"? What he's done to carry this team is legendary. Though I don't expect a long playoff run, they'll be handful for any team they face.

 

[BCNate]

I said Pittsburgh and Washington from just to see Ovi and Crosby in the playoffs for what may be the last time.

Doesn’t matter much, I think whoever gets in gets rolled pretty quickly.

 

[Fatass]

Turtle derby. Thinking whichever two get in they will both get beat quite handily by the Division winners.

 

[Moose Head]

Washington and Pittsburgh because of Crosby and Ovechkin

Second hand tickets are $228 for game 1 and $275 for game 2 right now for the Isles. If it’s Isles-Rags, that’ll get close to $150 more.

 

[Cenzo_]

Roy and Crosby

 

[Johnny Tomala]

Red Wings and Flyers.

What's the point of rooting for a tank now? Finish 9th instead of 8th? Just take the playoff games

Worth it.

 

[Perfect_Drug]

Voted for Sid and OV

But Wings fans deserve it the most.



Isle are pretty much a lock

 

[JTToilinginToronto]

Islanders and I guess Red Wings. The other choices are not good.

 

[miscs75]

Worth it.

UBS will be wild. It actually gets a hockey atmosphere unlike Barclays.

So you'd rather miss the playoffs for a couple of spots improvement in the draft?

I'm not in the NY area anymore, but I'm planning on flying up for an UBS game if it's Rags-Islanders.

The two teams don't play that often in the playoffs with how many teams there are in the league (and probably will expand in the future). Could literally be a once-in-a-lifetime event depending on when you were born and how long you got on the planet. Not gonna miss it.

If you come down, they’ll most likely be having viewing parties for the away games at UBS anyways. Usually a former player shows up for it.

 

[insomniaddict]

Isles and Wings by a long shot. I however won't be mad if it's Pens over Wings. Just as long as Putinchkin's team doesn't make it I'm fine.

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

Pens and Wings. The other teams have less than a -20 goal differential. Pens and Wings have positive differentials. It’s about standards.

Also, F the Isles, Caps and Flyers.

 

[LarKing]

Homer vote for the Wings then I'd probably say Pens to see Crosby

 

[Czechboy]

Ovi and Crosby . Living Legends

 

[josra33]

Isles and Wings because I think they are the weakest of the options.
