Ridiculous Marty. Long live Elias.

I see your Simpsons and raise you pokemon! http://www.tsn.ca/bardown/Story.aspx?Pokemon%2BStyle%2BNHL%2BLogos&id=454164 edit: full roster of logos here: https://www.behance.net/gallery/10768307/Puckmon

Ha, how awesome would it be if Lou moves us up in the draft by trading the "immovable" pick in a quid pro quo.

Just ran it through a simulator, my team beat yours 4-2 in a best of 7. Hasek had 13 goals and 7 assists... and that was just game 1

Robitaille-Gretzky-Kurri Lidstrom-Niedermeyer Hasek And I will win every game.

Yea I was about to chime in, I know that idiot McGuire was trumping up a non issue, but Subban took the next shift.

Me or PK? It shows up inline in the post for me. https://www[dot]youtube.com/watch?v=cjuGCJJUGsg (replace the dot)

I don't think they can do banners given the wildcard sillyness. It would be a little weird to win the division you don't actually belong too.

I don't think the 3rd goal was that bad. It's not really Fluery's fault the puck bounces over his stick, he didn't mishandle it or anything. Maybe he should have stayed in his net, but the blue jackets won the race to the puck as it were and maybe they score anyway and the conversation becomes about Fluery being too timid to pay the puck. The OT goal was way worse, he has to stop a half speed, clear vision shot from way above the circles.

Hrm that graphic with total goaltender points just said that Marty has 2 goals but doesn't he have 3?

On the other hand, I grew up in NY and have pretty much cheered for the Devils since I was 6. I imagine it has more to do with what team you are exposed to when you are young. My Uncle and Cousin were Devils fans, so that's why they stuck with me.

I will never forgive you.

another phantom call

http://theoatmeal.com/comics/tesla is enough of a reason to vote for Marty.

I still believe. Despite the squandered opportunities, we can be 1 point out of a playoff spot in roughly 36 hours. We've done "enough" (albiet they helped) to be able to catch Wsh and Tor by our own power. Now we just need to catch Det or Clb.

Yeah I fat fingered my phone

5.

I'm shocked eveytime I see that we are 6th in the league.

This.

8-2 gets us in under our own power. 6-3-1 (which I think is reasonable for us to do) gets us in with 3 out of 4 teams essentially finishing with 4-6 records. I would say its 40/60 that's how those 4 teams shake out, again none of them are better then 5-4-1, so we just need them to play slightly worse. I feel like losing 2 of the next 3 or 4 puts us in the hail mary range.

Ah but none of those teams are better then 5-4-1 in their last 10. I think we are still 1-2 games away from being "highly unlikely". I think right now it's almost a coin flip.

I don't think it's over, I see 4 teams ahead of us, 2 of which will make the playoffs, and we have ROW tie breaker on 3 of them, likely all if we actually got a few wins. Winning our games in hand and our game vs Wsh puts us 1 point behind Tor/Wsh. Things "we" control. Overcoming a 1 point gap in 8 games? very feasible. After that we need a small collapse by Det or Clb to to sneak into the 8th slot. Overcoming 5 points in 10 games. Both of those teams are 5-4-1 in their last 10, if *either* went 5-5 over their next 10, and we did 7-2-1 we would be in. With a little luck, if one went 4-6, we could get in with 6-3-1. So Idk how likely it is, but for me it's not "done".

I don't like blaming refs but come on there rangers have done far worse and more frequently all game. I'm fine with letting it go but at least be consistent
