Game 1: Islanders, 1 point earned, 1 point lost (58 total points remain, 1 point gained)FLPensFan wrote: ↑Tue Feb 20, 2024 9:55 pm Going into tonight, the Penguins had 55 points and 30 games remaining. 60 possible points up for grabs, and, forgetting for a minute what the teams ahead of them are doing, the team probably needs 95 points, or 40 out of 60 points, to make the playoffs. Seems highly unlikely, as that is a .666 points percentage, and the Penguins are at .529 points percentage on the season.
Game 1: Islanders, 1 point earned, 1 point lost (58 total points remain, 1 point gained)
Game 2: Montreal, 2 points earned, 0 points lost (56 points remain, 3 points earned)
And for those ahead of them
--Penguins are down to 3 games in hand on Philly (although Philly is playing NYR now); Philly is 9 points up on the Penguins for 3rd, and won their last game
--Penguins have 3 games in hand on Detroit; Detroit is 10 points up on the Penguins for WC1; DET has won 4 in a row and 7-2-1 in last 10
--Penguins have 4 games in hand on Tampa; Tampa is 7 points up on the Penguins for WC2; Tampa has lost their last 3 in a row, but is up 3-0 on NYI today
