The worst nightmare is coming possibly true - finishing 1 point out of a playoff spot. That is the WORST finish. At least Detroit will not get Connor Bedard with this NYI pick as it's lottery protected. But you will get a pick somewhere between 15 and 20 (too lazy to look at this now) (Detroit acquired the Isles 1st Rounder in a trade with Vancouver who owned it via the Bo Horvat trade)

Sorokin was ordinary in this game - but it was players like Adam Pelech who is a STAR who decided to have a super-clunker period as well as Ryan Pulock and Zach Parise all were -3 in the first period.

Not the time to come up with a piss poor effort and to have some bad luck involved.

Let's see how it all shakes out. The thought of losing out to Sidney is making me ill. Funny thing about the broadcast - Brendan Burke was telling of several Capitals fans who said it would be "ok' for the Caps to lose last night so the Pens would suffer.
