Panthers @ Islanders: the Isles are 1 point back of Ottawa and, although the Sens hold one game in hand, that's the postponed game against the Bruins.

Rangers @ Flyers: the Rangers are 2 points back and have played the same number of games as the Sens. Flyers coming off a big win over the Habs; hopefully they saved some of that for the Rangers. If the Flyers lose in regulation their reverse magic number will be down to 1.

Lightning @ Jets: recall that the Sens magic number is 9 (technically only against the Jets; there's still a mathematical chance for the Sabres, Devils and Flyers to catch them) and a regulation loss by the Jets will whittle it down to 7.

Leafs @ Caps: Sens are 5 points back of the Leafs with 1 game in hand (the aforementioned Boston game). A regulation loss by Toronto combined with a win by the Sens will still leave them 3 points back with one more head-to-head game coming April 20. And of course before they play the Leafs next Saturday, the Sens will host Washington on Thursday, so it'll be interesting how the two Ontario teams do against the Caps, before facing off on HNIC.

Go Panthers! Go Flyers! Go Jets! Don't really care about Leafs/Caps.
