For the Penguins to qualify for the Stanley Cup playoffs: PIT beats NYI PHI beats WSH (any fashion) MTL beats DET (any fashion) OR PIT OT loss to NYI PHI beats WSH (regulation) MTL beats DET (regulation)
@DannyShireyPGH If I’m understanding things, we could be eliminated tomorrow night before we even play our last game correct?
@DannyShireyPGH Wait I thought DET would have to lose in regulation in the first scenario?
@DannyShireyPGH What about this scenario? Pittsburgh is also in with a loss in OT/SO AND Capitals loss in regulation AND Detroit loss in regulation (I believe this final one is correct as all 4 teams would be tied at 89 points... but Pittsburgh has the most RW)... is that right or no?
@DannyShireyPGH Detroit will likely crush Montreal next game. Already over. What Pittsburgh does is basically irrelevant.
@DannyShireyPGH We all knew some of those crap losses would bite them in the butt, and here we are. Gotta give huge credit to them for fighting their way back into the race though.
