Leafs and Devils are now done. both have dropped too many games they should have won.
b2b excuse in this situation... Leafs are now 4-6 in last ten, doesn't look like serious playoff push to me :shrug: If Buffalo plays 50% hockey they will get 88 points Toronto needs at least 9 wins of their next 10.
Devils loss was a big surprise because they already lost Ott last week so i thought they would have paid little more attention here. Tonight they play Wsh who got their winning strike snapped by Det wed. Interesting to see if Wsh bounds back against Devils that know their chances are pretty much gone. Imo Devils can drop 1 or 2 games out of their last 12 to get in the playoffs.
Carolina is going nowhere with Ward.
If Atlanta loses next to Buf they are in the same boat with Tor and NJ.
I think Eastern conf playoff teams are these eight that we have now ( but i honestly wish that NYR fucks it up somehow :142smilie )
