The final day of the season, every team playing, but only one last playoff spot on the line. As those who watched the recording I put on discord, Dallas pulling out the 5-2 win over St. Louis eliminated Colorado, regardless of their subsequent victory over Nashville. Adding insult to injury (or possibly injury to insult), in what I feel is an unfortunately appropriate microcosm of the Avs season, Nashville's Nathan Noel knocked out Eric Staal for 88 days, earning himself a 12 game suspension (or possibly 13, I'm not sure how we round things).

Elsewhere, the Wild winning and Ducks only managing a tie swapped the two teams into 6th/7th in the west respectively, while the Habs' 6-3 defeat of Toronto was not enough to get them into 5th, as the Devils beat Ottawa 6-4. Florida and Boston had already been eliminated, but their victories combined with the Isles loss does mean they finish just 1 and 2 points out.

Very tough race.
All respect to Josh. I believe you'll make it through next year.

A President's Trophy, huh... not bad. Didn't even have to win to get it either thanks to Detroit (what was that?).

Kenny Ryan got a clutch 2 points to finish with 50 in 66, pretty good for a guy I waived at the beginning of the season, Kakko ends with a consistent but not that nice 59, and Kovy ends with 36 goals to (sadly) break a 9-year 40+ streak.

Meanwhile, Gaborik earning 1.6M at age 42, scoring 47G and winning the Art Ross... now that's impressive. Also breaks Gordie Howe's record of 44 at age 40.
