Well since there is no GDT yet....
Shitsburgh is in 1st place with 75 pts and 1 game left
Caps in 2nd with 73 pts and 3 to play
Boston in 3rd with 71 pts, 3 to play
Isles in 4th with 68 and 2 games left
Caps and Shitsburgh can finish no less than 3rd place
Isles can finish no higher than 3rdThe rest is.....kind of toss up.
Caps prolly have the best chance at 1st place with three games to go and 2 games in hand on the Hens but really any of the three could end up anywhere 1, 2, 3.
Most likely...it stays just as it is or maybe Caps/Hens swap 1 & 2. Caps play Philthy twice and end with Boston last game of year. Beating Boston in the final will likely cement at least 2nd place for the Caps, but we shall see.
Shitsburgh plays Buffalo so...they likely end up with 77 pts.
If Caps win 2 of last 3 games (in regulation), they would also have 77 Pts. Both teams would have 77 pts but the Hens would have 37 wins to Caps 36, but the Caps would have 30 RW to the Hens 29. I looked it up and RW is the 1st tie breaker, so Caps need to win 2/3 to end up #1 in the division.
Oh, and when Shitsburgh beats Buffalo, Boston can't possibly get the #1 spot.
The only way Caps draw SHitsburgh in round 1 is if SHitsburgh loses to Buffalo, AND Boston wins all three remaining games, AND the Caps lose at least 1 game (which they would have to for Boston to win all 3) THat would put Boston 1, and Hens/Caps 2/3.
P.S. All this could have been avoided if Alta would do his shopping on non game days
