It's been a long four years, the return of the magic number thread

[Habsy]

Pulling away from the pack. Ottawa is still not out of reach.

 

[Stinky]

CHARTZ!

 

[Stinky]

As for Bob Ross, l'artiste? His number should be 25

 

[Rolex]

Assuming that worst case scenario one of the following teams Rangers-Islanders- Detroit-Columbus win all their remaining games, we need 3 more points to make sure we clinch

Yes, three guarantees it

 

[worm]

Islanders lose a point

 

[AH$$$]

3 magic number across the board. 2 for Columbus.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Not likely perhaps, but there’s a scenario in which we clinch on Friday.

 

[Krustchev]

Not likely perhaps, but there’s a scenario in which we clinch on Friday.

If we win and all the teams with 79 points lose on or before Friday?

 

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

If we win and all the teams with 79 points lose on or before Friday?

A win Friday guaranteed eliminate either Rangers or Islanders and Columbus.

Could also eliminate Detroit and the Rangers depending on their respective games v Panthers and Flyers before Friday

 

[lecoqsportif]

All the teams chasing us have the possibility of dropping 2 points before or on Friday. Would need NYR to lose tonight against Philly but then turn around and beat the fishstix. Coupled with CLB and DET losses in regulation, and the scenario unfolds itself.

Not likely, but it is possible.

Regardless . . . we’re making the playoffs. The big question is do I shell out some bucks to catch one of the playoff games in DC, now that the lunatic who runs this country has shredded my wealth for absolutely no good reason?

Avoid, especially if you happen to have a tattoo.

Besides, the series will end with a Habs victory in game 4 or 6, on Bell Centre ice.

 

[Habsy]

You shouldn't have voted for him then

 

[Krustchev]

I never have.

I’m gonna assume you can handle that with current cash flow rather than tapping into equity holdings.

Yeah but I don’t know when the insanity will end. An economic downturn will impact my business too, obviously.

 

[lecoqsportif]

That really sucks.

Yes you should

You can scream "elbows up"...

Look at this way, market isn't down that much today and it is just a paper loss, you aren't really poor like some, you just feel like you are.
