For poops and giggles, I went thru the NHL's remaining schedule. Here's how I think the East finishes

METRO
1. WAS 118
2. PIT 107
3. NYR 101

ATLANTIC
1. FLA 105
2. TB 101
3. DET 96

WILDCARD
1. PHL 98
2. NYI 97

Boston just misses with 95

I have the Flyers winning in OT vs Detroit and in regulation against the Laffs. I then, in a game that will be meaningless to the Pens, I have them beating the Pens in OT to clinch a playoff spot, and finally, in Stolarz 1st and only start, I have them beating the Isles, who have clinched a playoff spot, in regulation.

Of course, though, I never get this stuff right

Haha I think you are most correct on how many games will end up going to OT...would certainly be happy with that outcome though

The Phils got 2 pennants and 1 WS.

But I understand your point.

I almost chimed in to correct it but didn't wanna be dad dude ya feel me?

And.. you guys want blood for Kuhnhackl's hit. You guys were swarmed with "injure Crosby" comments last night after that hit. So don't try to act high and mighty after the fact, your side was just as ugly.

I think most people wanted a penalty. If a Pens player absorbed that hit and the play led directly to a goal, I'm sure Pens fans would have been reasonable and measured in their response.

As far as the "injure Crosby" thing, that was likely just 2Real over and over again.

You are so that guy.

And they're a few years away from cap hell and obscurity. The Flyers will be on the upswing and will be handing the Pens losses on a regular basis. If Crosby retires with 1 cup win, that run will be considered a disappointment. Similar to how I consider the Phillies' run with one pennant a disappointment.

2 pennants
