CheersMan Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 I don't like that hypothetical. Nt one little bit. My apologies, I hope it doesn't happen again. I was just demonstrating to TD how close DAL is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flamespatriot Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 Dam we need to step it up. Minny, LA, and Dallas aren't slowing down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darth_henning Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 SJS, DAL and VAN all with wins tonight in regulation. I'm blaming Cheers for jinxing us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kehatch Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 Terrible night in the out of town scoreboard. Really need a win tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robrob1974 Posted February 15, 2015 Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 Tonight's not looking any better on the scoreboard with Minnie and Winnie both up 4-3 in their respective games. I wonder what LA is going to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_People1 Posted February 15, 2015 Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 Seguin might be seriously injured. And thus, Dallas's playoff chances might be seriously over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travel_dude Posted February 15, 2015 Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 Dubie let in 3 so far. He may be regressing to the norm. WPG gets at least a point as this one is going to OT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyerfan52 Posted February 15, 2015 Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 It gives us even more incentive to beat the Orca Invin. I just watched the Jets game. Amazed how much & @ what times Maurice is playing the 2 new guys. Both used in a 4 on 3 in OT. Stafford scores the winner in the shootout. Dang, Myers & Stafford haven't even had a chance to house shop in the Peg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darth_henning Posted February 15, 2015 Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 Well Winnipeg definitely gt better with the trade, Not good news. A couple days of theOOT Scoreboard being unkind. This seems to happen every year. Unless we do it ourselves we're not getting help with it. Frustrating. EDIT: Also just realized that MIN has 18 or a possible 20 points in their last 10 games. WTF?

xstrike Posted February 15, 2015 Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 Minnesota wins. 8-0-2 in last 2. They're tied with us now. We gotta win this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darth_henning Posted February 15, 2015 Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 WE WIN!!! But so do MIN, LAK and WPG. Sigh. At least Iggy and co did us a favour and put Dallas out of the race for all intents and purposes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kehatch Posted February 15, 2015 Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 We have went 5 of 7 in the last two 7 game sets. We got ourselves back in. We just have to keep it going. That said, the OOT board has been terrible the last week. LA, MIN, WPG, and VAN all gaining ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robrob1974 Posted February 15, 2015 Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 Maybe this helps with the playoff push and allows us to play with the same urgency in the playoffs if we make it in. ??? It only makes us better and understand what it takes. Learning how to win... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flamespatriot Posted February 15, 2015 Report Share Posted February 15, 2015 As long as this team stays true to Bob Hearley's 7 Game segments by winning 5 of 7, then they should get a playoff position. This team controls it's own fate. They need to stay 4 games above .500, but they should be focusing on catching up with vancouver and San Jose.

This team controls it's own fate. They need to stay 4 games above .500, but they should be focusing on catching up with vancouver and San Jose.Tied with VAN in points and 1 behind SJ. We maintain our position by winning enough against the East (so far not so much) and winning the 4-point games in the West. We frustrate the heck out of SJ by keeping close to them; they have to keep winning or be overtaken. VAN's games-in-hand are evaporating, and they have won 4/7 to just keep pace. LA, even winning 4 in a row, are still 3 points back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darth_henning Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 Based on the last 10, it almost looks like the Jets and Sharks may get replaced by the Wild and Kings. As long as we keep winning 4/7 we're doing ok. We have yet to play any games against the Bruins or Flyers this year. Those two sets could have a huge impact on our playoff chances.

CheersMan Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 Pyro, I love the charts, and thanks for sharing. Just an observation. The projected points are based on past play. The East has been sewed up for some time and as a result there is less urgency on them winning games. In the West however, the competition is heating up, many teams are still aiming for a playoff spot, pushing each other even harder, resulting in more points. I could see 96-97 pts as the cut off, maybe higher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyromancer Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 On January 28th last year the projected cut-off (based on past play) was at 95 pts. At the end of the season Dallas made the final wild card spot with 91 pts. I still see a 92-94 pt cut-off occurring as a tight wild card race lasting to the end of the season likely suppresses the cut-off. At least we will witness an exciting finish in the West as I still see 7 teams vying for 4 spots. In the East, we see 2 teams fighting for 1 spot. Boston almost a lock with Florida hanging by a thread. The other 7 teams all have a practically insurmountable task and as a result their seasons are essentially over. How depressing to cheer for a team with 25-30 games left to play knowing this early that game 82 will be the last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
