Stafford with two giveaways in his own zone on one shift. I see heโ€™s upping his game for the playoffs.

If he even smells the ice in the playoffs I'll petition to have Hynes booted out of Jersey. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Flyers win, Blue Jackets getting crushed. Glad we mailed it in to go in as wild card#2 instead of the 3 seed in the Metro.

we finished 8th in the east.. so we get Tampa right? Or we get Boston cuz we're the 2nd wildcard, and 1st wildcard gets Tampa?

I can never get who plays who since they did the wildcard thing. Someone help a sad soul out.

If Tampa gets a point tonight, we wonโ€™t know for sure until tomorrow.

1st wildcard gets Washington. We are still up in the air. It will be Tampa or Boston.

Watching the lineup he put on the ice tonight, plus not bothering to pull the goalie, tells me haynes wanted to play either boston or tampa, rather than washington or pittsburgh.

Boston for sure. They're 3-0 against us (technically 2-0-1), though they were close games.

My logic says they should take us in an easy 5, but there's something different about this year. We'll see...

I have been the biggest Corey basher this year but I thought it was wrong to throw him out there with that lineup. Should have recalled Lack for 1 game kept Kinkaid home and left Corey on bench. Now if you do need him to come in for any playoff games its quite obvious what is going to happen.

nah, i thought it was fine. put him out there to see some rubber during a game instead of practice. If Kinkaid goes down.. we'll NEED a strong Cory. I still can't believe Kinkaid is the guy. lol.

very poor defense in front of him, but to be fair he was rusty too. It was a bad scenario and he was definitely thrown to the wolves.

I still feel like I'd definitely rather play Tampa than Boston. Both teams are great but we went 3-0 vs Tampa this year and I think stylistically match up better with them. Either way don't really feel like I can complain at this point with how the season has gone.

After yesterday the Hart should be interesting. One day/game shouldn't in theory drastically change Hart voting but I think in practice it will. Giroux scoring a hat trick to clinch a playoff spot and finish second in scoring. MacKinnon scoring the GWG in what was essentially a playoff game for his team. I think there's a good chance the top three in some order are Hall, MacKinnon, Giroux.
