Where the hell is the Pitt/Philly game? Center Ice? WTF?

NHL Network

[ROC Sabres]

Can't believe I have to root for Ottawa now... Come on Ottawa, beat Boston...

I'm more worried about that then Pitt / Flyers right now with the way that Ottawa has been playing. Needless to say, Ottawa can still not make the playoffs which i find very satisfying if that happens (as long as it doesn't knock us out).

It means the B's have to get a point in the next game or we're taking them down on Saturday

and the Crapitals need to wet the bed.

Haha I like it!

 

And I agree with Ray, Brodeur just stole that game. C'mon, Pens, hold on!!!

Thank you New Jersey!!!

 

Here's the current scenario (pending tonights Flyers-Pens game):

 

 

To make the playoffs, the Sabres have to win their final 2 games and then have 2 of the following 3 things happen:

 

1. BOS loses their final 2 games in regulation - OTT and BUF

 

2. WAS loses their final 2 games (1 could be in OT) - TB and FLA

 

3. PHI loses their final 3 games (1 can be in OT) - PIT, NJ, and PIT

 

 

 

Go Pens Go!!!

8 and a half to go in Pittsburgh still 3-2 Pens

 

Flyers now on the PP with 8 to go

Unfortunately, if they miss it then so will we because Boston will be in.

 

It's a nice little consolation prize to think about but I'd rather make it ourselves.

does it really matter if philly and washington finish ahead of us??? unless they plan on 9 teams in the eastern conf this year

If washington and philly lose out. I think we might actually get the 7th seed. Since we have an advantage on Philly and would have a better record(points wise) than washington. That's if Boston loses out too.

I don't see the PIT game on NHL Network?!

thanks....that is a pretty good feed. better than my slingbox.

[PromoTheRobot]

Friggin refs blew a goal call for NJ. B's should have lost in regulation. That one may haunt us.

Pens kill it 6 to go

yes but do you really think WASH wont get at least 2 pts out of TB then FLA??

we need OTT to beat BOS, and PHILLY to lose all3...and of course win our 2 games, only way I see it happening

I agree. TB is folding like a cheap seat early in games... I don't see them playing man-up against WAS on the back-end of a back-to-back game. Now if somehow TB does show up, I could see FLA taking them down.. Chances of this happening are low in my opinion...

Hey, you're asking the scenarios. I'm giving them to ya. But i agree. Ott needs to (find a way) to beat Bos in reg. and Philly will need to just suck. They have a tough two games after tonight facing NJ and Pitt again so i can see that happening.... hopefully.

I figured things out last weekend and I've just been updating it after each night's games. A Pittsburgh win would be HUGE for the Sabres tonight!

I think someone screwed something up somewhere. Pitt-Philly is blacked out on my DirecTV system, it's not showing up on Center Ice and I'm not in the Pittsburgh or Philly markets, so....

[wjag]

under 4 minutes to play in Pit-Phl

You never know. FLA is a good team and Washington is rather young who knows what they will do with the playoffs on the line
