It seems like the last 3 years have come down to a creation of this type of thread.

I still hold out hope for a playoff run (especially after how they played against the Caps).

So for 2/22 there is only really one relevant game and that is Senators/Caps.

Ottawa is 13 pts ahead of us and holds the season series at 2-1...so basically non-catchable.

We own a 2-1 advantage over Washington and trail by 6 so root for the Sens tonight :)

I don't think Boston can catch the NYR for 1st overall, but I am still rooting for the Bruins to beat the Blues tonight because I would love to play the Bruins in the first round.

Tonight February 23rd, we could use the following...

San Jose Sharks win over the Toronto Maple Leafs

Minnesota Wild win over the Florida Panthers

Tampa Bay Lightning win over the Winnipeg Jets

AND of Course

Carolina Hurricanes win over the Anaheim Ducks

If all of the following happens tonight, the Hurricanes will stand 6 points out of 8th place in the conference and 6 points out of the division lead which would give them 3rd place in the conference.

Minnesota beats Florida 3-2 in SO.

The Jets are in cruise control vs. the Panthers and have that game in hand.

After the games tonight.

Winnipeg takes control of the Southeast division and Florida moves down to 8th knocking Toronto out of the playoffs at the moment.

The Canes did pick up a point and have jumped Montreal in the standings even though they have the same number of points.

February 24th Edition

Montreal Canadians @ Washington Capitals (No matter what the outcome is, the Canes get help. Canadians Win Pros: they keep Washington really close to us in the Southeast Division Standings. Canadian Win Cons: Montreal would knock us back down to last place in the Eastern Conference. Capitals Win Pros: We would remain above the Canadians in the standings. Capitals Win Cons: The Capitals would create a little more distance between them and us in the Southeast Division. Either way, we will get some sort of help.)

Boston Bruins @ Buffalo Sabres (We're rooting for Boston in this one. With a Boston win, they get closer to the number one seed which would set up a favorable match up between them and us if we are able to get the eighth seed and with a Boston win they keep Buffalo only one point ahead of us in the Eastern Conference Standings.)

Edit: I was trying to get this done as fast as I could this morning and left out a game.

We could use a New York Rangers win over the New York Islanders

That's all for tonight!!!

      Joint Practice - Jets

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.

      Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.

      You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
