The magic number for the Habs is 90. So 3 points. All other teams are sitting at 79 with 5 games left leaving a max of 10 points on the table. Habs are at 87 holding on to the last east WC slot

Man this Rangers game is fun. TNT is awesome. They brought Sam Rosen in and paired him with his old color guy John Davidson. Reminds me of the good old days (OK to be fair aside from 1994 most of it was bad days since he left in like 2006

 

[R-Troop]

well a 1-1 game after 1 became an 8-5 loss. Tragic Number is now 1 for the Rangers. Good to hear Sam Rosen and JD though. Glad TNT did that.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Eriksson Ek is back for 1 game and already back in business with 4 goals
