Need any Leafs win, but preferably in regulation.

What a difference a week makes.

Leafs PP. Let's GO.

Sens kill. Good chances for Leafs; it just wouldn't go in.

Going to OT. Sens get a point. :evil:

What a difference a week makes, Part II: Relying on the Leafs and Jonathan Bernier to prevail in a SO for our benefit.

OMG, horrible.

LEAFS WIN in round 7! Damage control! Better than nothing!

The fact that the Sens couldn't put it away in the 3rd with the ice tilted at a 60-degree angle in their favor tells me that if the Pens really focus, then they'll win Tuesday.

Ottawa cannot catch the Pens in the ROW tiebreaker, should they happen to finish with the same number of points.

I admire your dedication...but what makes you think the words Pens and focus belong together? Haha

Wishful thinking, and they tipped their hand in California.

They have it in them. They do. Boy, we miss Tanger.

I could see the Pens getting it together for one night, knowing they clinch a playoff berth with a win in regulation.

Plus, Ottawa is something like 17-1-2 in their last 20 games. That's not sustainable.

Edit: Not quite that insanely good, but close. Looks like 18-4-2 going back to mid-February.

The game is in Ottawa, and I don't know if that's good or not. I guess there's no use wondering.

Therefore if the Pens 'magic number' is now 4, which I believe to be the case; a regulation win in Ottawa means +2 for the Pens, -2 for Ottawa, ='s 4 ? Would that be correct?

Thank-you TO!
I am hoping LGP can keep together for sixty minutes too!

OTT 2 : 0 NYR at 2nd intermission

OTT scores 2 goals in 1:04 at the end of the 2nd.

According to the MSG guys, Vigneault was preaching to maintain "good work ethic, good work habits." Yeah.

I wonder if Henrik is hurt, because early on Mika Zibinejad fall on him, there was a little pile up, he fell back awkwardly, and had a good bit of weight on him. He came back in, but he doesn't quite look himself, imo. The second OTT goal was a fluky bounce that only OTT is getting right now, however.

BOS 0 : 0 FLA 12:00 left in 2nd

If BOS wins and the NYR-OTT score holds, then we're in 9th place at the end of tonight, I think.

THIS IS GOING POORLY.

Eh, I think Henrik is OK, but the Rangers are getting nothing going.

Bruins just scored. I think I'm going to bed. :?

Karlsson really isn't the type of dman who should be winning the Norris.

Ottawa is making the playoffs. Just not sure if it will be the Pens, Wings or Bruins, or maybe even the Isles, that chokes.

Oh, damn you, Pens.

The Rangers didn't lie down, but they certainly didn't break too much of a sweat.

Yeah. It's been tough. There's still a part of me that can't believe this is happening. But it's not over yet.
