The Ditch part deux

Rangers score with 6.1 seconds on the clock.

 

Just saw that, wow.

 

CBJ guaranteed a point.

 

Shootout

 

This could be it for the habs unless Georgiev saves the day.

 

What a save. He looked beat. Stretched that leg.

 

Jackets clinch.

 

And Jays lose on a walk off at the same time.

 

Another loaf.

 

So cbj has clinched

 

Jays pitching keeping them in games.

 

Too many times in this short season the story line has been how the Jay's snapped a no-hit bid. I think it's been 3 times already.

 

I think they'll get no-hit at least once this year. Vladdy should be there in late April.

 

SATURDAY’S BIGGEST GAMES (with all 16 teams set, Saturday becomes a day of seeding battles)

Canucks at Blues (4 p.m. ET):

The easy math is that the Blues finish first in the Central if they win and both Nashville and Winnipeg lose. Basically, if they win, it’s cross your fingers time as they watch the two later games.

Blue Jackets at Senators (7 p.m. ET):

The Blue Jackets, who clinched on Friday, will finish in the first wildcard with a win and a Carolina loss in any fashion. They can also clinch providing they get a point and Carolina loses in regulation.

Hurricanes at Flyers (7 p.m. ET):

The Hurricanes can overtake the Pittsburgh Penguins for third in the Metropolitan if they win and Pittsburgh loses in regulation.

Rangers at Penguins (7 p.m. ET):

The Penguins need a single point to ensure they keep first place. They can also finish as high as second if they win and the New York Islanders loss in regulation in Washington. The Penguins can also finish as low as the first wildcard if Carolina wins and Pittsburgh loses in regulation.

Islanders at Capitals (7 p.m. ET):

The Capitals have won the Metro, but a point by the Islanders will ensure they finish second. Pittsburgh can overtake them with a win and an Islanders regulation loss.

Wild at Stars (8 p.m. ET):

Dallas keeps their first wildcard seed providing they get a point at home to Minnesota. If they lose, Colorado could overtake them with a win.

Blackhawks at Predators (8 p.m. ET):

The Predators will win the Central Division title with a win. Things get dicey if they manage only a point or lose in regulation. See Blues game above and Jets game down below.

Jets at Coyotes (10 p.m. ET):

Winnipeg will retake the Central lead and the division title if they win and Nashville loses in any fashion.

Avalanche at Sharks (10:30 p.m. ET):

The Avs can finish in the first wildcard spot providing they beat San Jose and Dallas loses in regulation.

TORONTO -- Garret Sparks will work on his game away from the Toronto Maple Leafs for at least the next 10 days, and Michael Hutchinson will be the backup goalie until further notice.

Sparks was not at practice Friday and the nameplate had been removed from his locker stall at the Maple Leafs practice facility. Hutchinson, who was recalled from the Toronto Marlies of the American Hockey League earlier in the day, practiced and is expected to be the backup to Frederik Andersen in the Maple Leafs' final regular-season game, against the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday...

Bolts score... 2-1, Boston in the 2nd.

 

2-2, 2nd

 

Bolts have 3 unanswered, 3-2 and on the PP.

 

I was hoping for a Bruins win. Wanna keep that 62 W record in Detroit.
