I hope that the difference between making it and not isn't the tie breaker criteria. That would just be too much to bear.

I don't like wins being the first tie breaker either. I wish they used goal differential as the first criteria, then wins. It would promote scoring, especially down the stretch in these kinds of races. Winnipeg would still likely win the tie break (currently 16 vs. 8), but it would still make it more interesting in general and give teams a fighting chance instead of just knowing there is no hope to win the tie break at this point. Of course making up 8 goals with 3 games to their 4 would still be extremely unlikely, it wouldn't be impossible.
