9 games yesterday. And the playoff picture has gotten a little clearer for us.
Only 6 games on the 2nd last day of the regular season. At this point it’s going to be just thoughts for the remainder of the season. I don’t think there will be anything posted tomorrow which will give Graeme and I an extra day to write up our first round previews and picks.
– Leafs vs Sens should be a good game and it’s both teams last game of the season. The Leafs still could use more losses but I don’t think it will matter here as it’s a big Battle of Ontario game and they may put on a show for us.
– Sharks vs Blackhawks has potential to be a high scoring game. Its Celebrini vs Bedard and its something we should look forward to when this game shows up on the schedule for years to come.
– Kraken vs Knights. The Knights can win the Pacific with a win here so I’d expect them to have a good effort. They last played at the start of April and the Kraken won that one 4-3. They may play spoiler here.
– Wings vs Panthers. The Panthers are without Bennett, Tkachuk, Jones, Reinhart, Ekblad, Marchand, Barkov the list goes on and on. If all of these players miss this game than the Wings should win this game.
