Florida has managed to make it in to a playoff spot and still has games at hand.

They were bumped out again by the end of the night, but they're only 1 point out with 3 games in hand so they're in a good spot. That's a pretty remarkable run that they've made. The downside is we'll have to hear so much more about how Tallon's a genius even though this won't change the fact that his decisions in the offseason (specifically how he handled Vegas) were still incredibly dumb.

Barkov, Huberdeau, Ekblad (sort of), and Luongo (0.930 SV%) are stronger than anything Tallon can do to this team.
 
The Islanders have essentially played themselves out of a playoff spot. They've lost 7 straight games.

Get outta there Johnny. Get out!

This guy is pretty amazing, and to be able to do it with all that unprofessional facial hair getting in the way makes it even more amazing. I am not sure why he hasn't formally changed his name to Hatrik.

This is a twitter thread that should be read by anyone who wants to know what Russian hockey is all about.

I have a few choice words on what I think about Putin.

That whole thing was crazy. I knew that SKA was stacked and had ties to Putin, but I didn't realize just how fixed it all was.

I should have expected it, given how Putin's government strives to fix things, but I'm surprised how deep it goes, and how complicit everyone at a leverage point is.

Sounds like Ron Francis has effectively been fired in Carolina.

They better stay the hell away from Dubas/Keefe.

Actually, I wouldn't mind their public interest forcing Shanahan's hand here to name Dubas as the GM out loud.
