I wouldn't be so sure. They've taken a big hit on the back end and it depends how soon these guys return (Bieksa, Tanev, Edler). Minnesta is hot and LA is hot. Canucks can probably make it if they go 0.500 the rest of the way, but 75% of your Top 4 is not easy to deal with over the long term when the initial adrenaline subsides.

Should they have started Mackenzie Skapski instead?

A plastic Mr. Siv would have probably had a better save percentage than Talbot.

Screw you, Rangers.
Screw you, Dallas.
Thank you, Caps.

The Panthers beat the Habs 3-2 in the shootout and the cats are now just one point back of the Bruins for the final playoff spot.

The Sabres just beat the Flyers by the same score and also in the shootout. The Flyers keep missing their chances to catch the Bruins. Does anybody know why this game took almost four hours to complete?

The Stars' Cole scores from Benn to make it 3-2 with just over two minutes left, but, that was it. Dallas almost tied it and then Marleau and Wingels scored empty net goals, 5-2 final for the Sharks.
