I forgot to add that the Rangers lost 5-2 to Buffalo, so they are now on the brink of elimination. Boston and the Rangers each have 3 games left to play and New York is 3 points back.
Here are the games remaining for both Boston and New York(as I mentioned above, Atlanta was eliminated).
Rangers: Toronto, Philadelphia, Philadelphia
Boston: Buffalo, Carolina, Washington
Philadelphia only has 2 games remaining, but since they are both against the Rangers they are in control of their own fate. They beat them once and they are in the playoffs.
I should also mention that Calgary was eliminated today. Colorado got the final Western playoff spot.
