Montreal almost will clinch the Northeast Division and now has to hope Pittsburgh lose 2 games so that the number 1 seed in the Eastern Conference can go to Montreal for sure... that is a rare time as the last time Montreal was on top in both conference and division was 1993 the year the Habs won the last Stanley Cup... could this be the one?
Ottawa has to wake up and win and try to get to maybe 4th overall in the Eastern Conference and avoid slipping back and get a lower seed ....
Carolina and Washington gonna be battling to see who get the Southeast Division title and the 3rd seed in the Eastern Conference but one of them will only get in.. so the other team wil be out of luck on this... I would think Washington might have an excellent chance!
Over at the Western Conference, Detroit already is number 1 seed and have won the Central Division again... and following that is San Jose in number 2 seed and Pacific Division champs... the 3rd seed as the Northwest Division champion is close to be going to the Minnesota Wild unless the Calgary Flames can wake up and chase Minny out and get the 3rd seed and etc... the Edmonton Oilers and Vancouver Canucks are in dire straits and need to have Nashville slide back for one of the Canadian teams to get in... Edmonton might be close to be out with 2 games left.. Vancouver has 4 games and Nashville also have 4 games.. oh wow.... so we have 1 week left to see what happens and the playoff picture will clear up for sure net Sunday (April 6th) which is the last day of the NHL season.....
