Kings win, Avs clinch a playoff birth and lock down a top four draft pick. Feels Good Man.

[StCapps]

I guess they technically haven't clinched yet, if the Coyotes get two regulation wins and the Avs lose both games in regulation, then the Coyotes could still pull it out.

The Loafs are basically going to have to trade Kapanen and Johnsson at some point.

Not that they want to get rid of them.

But they can only be bridged for a year or two, then the cap hits will be too high.

The Leafs really only need Marner and Nylander for that role, Kapanen and Johnsson are superfluous.

The Mike Babcock Country Club is too much of the same player.

It's not heavy enough, a third scoring line is not actually a thing.

They don't have the ice time for the Kadri line to be anything other than a checking line.

A third scoring line is a waste of cap.

Kapanen can check, but he's gonna want $4 million which is too much for a checking forward.

Johnsson on the line with Matthews and Nylander is too much of the same player.

They need another Hyman there, not another small scoring winger.

Bolts @ Buds.

J-Gards is back.

Calle Rosen on the bottom pairing with Demott.

Kadri is out, Bill Nylander playing center.

[Smitty-48]

Loafs played okay, were keeping up with the Bolts, but Freddie Toskala lets in two softies ftl.

Avs clinch a playoff spot the second last game of the year, last year they clinched it on the last game of the year. Still got a chance to pass Dallas for the top wild spot.

Hah! Sad and failing Garret' Sparks sent on ten day sabbatical cause nobody can stand the sight of him.

As I surmised, Hutchison called up from the Marlies.

Not that he's not useless, but anything's better than Sparky right naow.

Yeah, Sparks is trash, good move.

Good riddance. Sparks can't stop a beach ball, but somehow is too impressed with himself.

I'm already looking to the future, which is Joe Woll.

Bob Cole's last game tonight, end of an era.
