mfitz804 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 (edited) ...because of Drew Stafford. February 13, Drew Stafford scored in the shootout to pick up the extra point. Without that goal, we have one less point and we lose the tiebreaker to Florida and we're on the golf course right now.

On February 17th, Lack played the best game of his life and led the Devils past the Lightning by making 48 saves on 51 shots. Without those two points.. etc. etc. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleBallofHate Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I'll go with the kids: because Nico loves to Hockey (and score 52 points)... because a 2016 6th round pick made the team and by some miracle scored 35 points... and because Butcher somehow wasn't vesey'd by the NYR (or anyone else) and got 44 pts! Can't top the Coleman pickle juice comment so I'll leave it at that! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobilly45 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Coach hynes...made the tough call of sticking with kk after cory was back. That imo was the biggest and best decision he's made this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 2 minutes ago, Kinkyisth3b3st said: Is 1-2-1 really “falling apart”? Still amazing that an 0-2-1 winless streak was enough to kill them....even with that, they went 25-8-2. But like we've noted, when you start 19-22-6 and pretty much suck for 57% of your season, it's hard to make a real argument for why you deserve a playoff berth at the expense of others. Next time Panthers, don't wait until the 48-game mark to start making your move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicomo Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 All the main reasons have been mentioned so I’ll give a shout to the early season hero’s like Boyle and Gibbons. Since we needed every single point to get in all those goals were huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
