Pittsburgh has played 52; the Sens have played 53. It's Jersey and Buffalo who have 4 games in hand.

And, by the way, while those games in hand most likely mean we're not going to catch those teams, in this compressed schedule year, an extra few games down the stretch could be huge. Players get injured, tired for the playoffs.

I agree and that's an extremely valid point. I hadn't thought of it like that, but you're quite right.

As for the games played mistake, I was thinking about Buffalo and winning the division see I can be optimistic too
You're right, though, that small margin is encouraging. 4th may be the highest we can get to, but being firmly within the playoff picture would be a nice way to spend the next 3+ ( ) months

Habs are mopping up the floor with the Rangers tonight. Wonder what Torts will have to say tonight.

Devils came back from 0-2 and won; Bruins only got as far as 9th, but tied in points with the Isles.
