There were a lot of games tonight and I was prepped to review them. Then VANs Dillon Heatherington had an intent to injure and I had to spend an additional 20+ minutes trying to make sure everything was correct. This might be the 5th straight time I've simmed and someone had an intent to injure, thereby fucking my ability to SIM reasonably. So if something is wrong, my apologies, here's hoping things worked out. If I have one more attempt to injure in a row, I may just freak
Assuming my math is correct, Columbus and Anaheim were both eliminated from the playoffs last night, while the Pens clinched.
There hasn't been much of a race in the West for a while, but here's how it looks (I should note, I don't actually know the tie-breakers):
West
6. Arizona (78gp, 83pts, max 91pts)
7-8. St. Louis (78gp, 82pts, max 90pts)
7-8. Nashville (78gp, 82pts, max 90pts)
9. Winnipeg (77gp, 76pts, max 86pts)
so obviously Winnipeg being 6pts back is facing a rather uphill challenge. The East is more exciting, but still only really goes down to 9th.
East
5. Tampa Bay (77gp, 85pts, max 95pts)
6. Florida (78gp, 84pts, max 92pts)
7. Philadelphia (77gp, 81pts, max 91pts)
8. Carolina (78gp, 80pts, max 88pts)
9. Buffalo (78gp, 79pts, max 87pts)
10. New York I (77gp, 70pts, max 80pts)
The Islanders might be out already, but again, I don't know the tie-breakers. Otherwise it's a close three-way battle with just 2 pts separating three teams, so that's kinda neat?
Another thrashing by our farm team. Sent a few kids down who've been up most of the season to get their confidence back. Four goals and three assists for Gunler, six assists for Chlapik.
