Red Wings vs. Bruins - huge game tonight

Boston sports teams are becoming tiresome.

I'm still not over the 2013 ALCS when the cop in the bullpen was cheering very unprofessionally when Ortiz homered and Hunter fell over the fence and he provided no assistance to Hunter who was hurt on the play but stayed in the game.

My prediction is really stepping out on a limb, but I saw whoever scores first should end up winning tonight.

*say

Rangers might not actually want to win out. A wildcard slot moves them to the Atlantic division and a much more favorable path to the conference finals.

Too close to overturn, but man that's close.

boys are flat

The tie breaker is ROW.

So if they win tonight - tied at 93 pts, but we have 1 more ROW:

ATLANTIC	GP	W	L	OTL	PTS	ROW
y - Florida	80	46	25	9	101	39
x - Tampa Bay	80	45	30	5	95	42
Detroit	80	41	28	11	93	39
Boston	80	41	30	9	91	37

So if we lose tonight and win Sat (assume they win) we still have more ROW.

If we lose both games, and they get an OT or regular win on the last game, we are out.

 

What a shitty start

Ok so now we need to just hope we can weather this first period. If we can win, great. Shootout loss is the next best thing.

.....

 

C'mon, guys. Maybe a little effort tonight? Maybe play like your playoff chances depend on it?

 

 

Down 2-0 in the middle of the first period. Not the start we're looking for.

Blashill needs to lay into these guys at the break. This is pathetic

Tired legs from back to back games and a late start last night. We will get going here in the 2nd. Im tuned in from Hong Kong this time.

This game got ugly quick

All comes down to Saturday

3-1 lets go wings

Bruins fan. Live in Ann Arbor. Thank you for starting Jimmy Howard two nights in a row. I love Bruins - Red Wings matchups and hate the Flyers so I hope we both make the playoffs. 

Fuck

...the Bruins scored two goals in teh first 45 seconds of the third period?  That's what the scoreboard on ESPN's site says.

Oh good, now we have to rely on the Maple Leafs to hold a lead against a desperate team. This will go well.........

That about does it so, we have to hope either philly or Boston lose their next game In regulation.

Important thing to remember here is that, even though with a loss, the win last night wound up being huge and has put us in a position where if either Boston or philly lose in regulation (philly has two and Boston has one) the wings are in. Obviously, if Detroit wins on Saturday, they're in also. They still control their own destiny.
