Tampa Bay is ahead of Carolina 3-2 with less than a minute left in the 2nd period.

Toronto has given up two PP goals to Detroit and are down 2-1 in the second period.

I was unhappy that the CBC was showing the Toronto game tonight. With Montreal not playing good hockey I've now changed my mind and I'm glad that I'm not able to watch their latest fiasco.

I was just about to type that they had 3 minutes left to fix that, but having just checked tsn.ca I saw that Washington now has a 2-0 lead.

First time I've ever seen this on the scoresheet before:

16:49 Montreal Michael Cammalleri: 2 minutes, delaying game-puck over glass

16:49 Washington Marcus Johansson: 2 minutes, delaying game-puck over glass

That looks more like a ref's opinion than something that can be said for certain is a fact.

For the second year in a row, the Ranger's playoff lives depend on their final game. Their only way in is if they win and Carolina loses.

Buffalo beat the Flyers 4-3 in OT. The Flyers are heading into the playoffs in a huge funk. They are 2-4-4 in their last 10 games. If the playoffs started today, they would be facing Buffalo, and if they play like they did in this game they are in big trouble indeed!

Anaheim beat LA 2-1 and are now in the playoffs.

Chicago beat Detroit 4-2 and all they need is one point in their last game to eliminate Dallas. Chicago plays Detroit again in their final game of the season.

San Jose lost 4-3 to Phoenix. They remain in 2nd place in the West, one point up on Detroit. They play Phoenix once more to finish off the season.

Well, shadows, it looks like Montreal got revenge for their loss to Toronto back in February. Toronto was playing surprisingly good hockey. Even Montreal finally decided to show up to play.

It seems to me that Toronto basically stopped playing with any intensity the day they were officially eliminated from post-season contention.

At least I can take solace in the fact that Boston won't be getting a top-5 pick again this year.

Go ahead, Jen. Tell us how you really feel about the Blackhawks and don't hold back.

Jen it looks like you didn't count on Minnesota Wild.

The Wild's 5-3 win over the Stars, has kept Dallas out of the postseason and left your 'beloved' Blackhawks in 8th place in the West.
