Maybe the hockey gods will reward the team for not engaging in a proper tank.

I am just hoping that the sports gods stop hating Michigan for tonight and next weekend, and then I will move on to the Rangers.

Panthers are absolutely in must win situation tonight and even if they win, probably wont matter, they choked it away

Devils have looked really good, that breakaway goal by Taylor Hall last night coming right out of box was amazing, he really should be Hart finalist

all around we did not get any help these last couple weeks

will probably be in the 10 slot and get moved back to 12

Have to give the Devils a lot of credit. They've won some clutch games against very good teams.

Most likely.


You can still draft good players in that spot obviously, although it would be nice to move up.

Three straight losses, including one against a team they should have likely beaten in Ottawa. The Toronto defeat started the slide

You mean give Taylor Hall credit. I knew he was good and needed a change of scenery but who knew NJ was that change. Kid is proving why he was a first overall pick and Edmonton looks stupid now, especially with how bad Larsson has played.

The Rangers really hurt their odds by moving up a few slots in the standing. Right now, they only have about a 11-12% chance of winning the lottery for one of the top 3 picks. In contrast, the Islanders, three spots up, have about a 20-21% chance with their pick (not counting the Calgary pick).

Rangers really should lose their last 3 games though

Definitely Devils and Flyers. Don't know about Islanders.

They have a three point edge in the standings right now over the Hawks, Isles and Oilers. All teams with three games left. They really need to lose that Islanders game to have any chance of moving up, but I bet they win it.

it would be the one time they beat the Islanders with our luck

Here are the games left for the Oilers, Hawks, Isles and Rangers. The Rangers have a three point lead on them all.

Oilers: @Minnesota, Vegas and Vancouver.
Hawks: @St. Louis, St. Louis and @Winnipeg
Isles: Flyers, Rangers and @Detroit
Rangers: @Devils, @Islanders and @ Philly

We need to go winless.

Need the Islanders to beat us and Detroit.

Need Oilers to beat Canucks and one of the other two.

The Hawks seems like a stretch.

I see all three teams losing all these games except for the Ranger-Islander game

This is proper BAD Math, Pete...
