The Leafs play the Senators three times tonight, and also play them two more times afterwards the rest of the season. I'm conflicted. First of all fuck the Sens, but the lottery? I'm in a glass case of emotion here. Sens winning keeps us in 4th, but also moves them up and could knock Boston out of the playoffs, which is good. But then we lose to the Senators, which is bad. And if we win and Carolina loses we're back to 5th. Tonight is just a big ol' pile of potassium benzoate. Here are tonights games:
St. Louis Blues at Minnesota Wild
Best Result: St. Louis victory
The Blues win and it keeps Nashville away from the division lead, which puts us in Sprong territroy!
Columbus Blue Jackets at Calgary Flames
Best Result: Columbus win
Those BJ's are really playing hard lately. A win keeps them in 6th and away from the top 5.
Boston Bruins at Florida Panthers
Best Result: Florida win
Just to keep the East playoff picture more fun, and every low lottery team needs some points.
New York Islanders at New Jersey Devils
Best Result: New Jersey win
Get them points NJ. They'll never get as low as us, but safety first!
New York Rangers at Carolina Hurricanes
Best Result: Carolina victory
One that really matters here, Hurricanes are only one point behind us, we need them to win the battle of the Staals.
Toronto Maple Leafs at Ottawa Senators
Best Result: A Leafs regulation loss, I suppose. Ugh, I feel so dirty.
Buffalo Sabres at Nashville Predators
Best Result: Sabres win
Sorry Cody & Mike, but you guys need to keep on losing.
Chicago Blackhawks at Dallas Stars
Best Result: Dallas win
Low lotto losers must get points
Pittsburgh Penguins at Arizona Coyotes
Best Result: Penguins win
Arizona for #2 (after the Leafs win the lottery)
Philadelphia Flyers at Edmonton Oilers
Best Result: Oilers win in OT
Oilers for #4! (After the Leafs win the lottery)
