Standings- position

Islanders win in a shootout!  If the Leafs win in regulation or overtime (not a shootout), I believe they can clinch tonight!
 
Well there's one point. Hopefully that breaks the Jets will and they lose their next game outright.

Yep, if Leafs win in regulation/OT they'd have 55 pts and 25 ROW, max Jets can get is 55 pts and 24 ROW.

You might be right. Jets can only get 55 points now if they go 3-0 and they'd lose the ROW tiebreaker if Leafs win tonight (not in shootout)

I feel a tad better now. A win tonight and I'll sleep like a baby tonight.
 
Isles have 53 points now too - Leafs destiny (as far as positioning in the east) is in their own hands. A loss tonight and they are tied for 6th with the Isles - I haven't been paying attention enough to know who would get the tiebreak. Just win!

I'm not a Leafs fan nor do I play one on TV but BIG congrats on making the playoffs. It's a long time coming. Hopefully JVR lights it up in the playoffs like he did a couple years ago. Unfortunately my team didn't make it this year so I'll be quietly cheering on the Leafs to make some noise. 8)

welcome aboard the leaf playoff wagon. I hope the leafs make you happy you cheered them on.
 
So the Leafs clinched a playoff berth and now what remains is to find out where they'll be seeded:

Magic Number of points gained by Leafs or lost by an opponent to eliminate them from being able to pass the Leafs who currently sit 5th in the Eastern Conference:
Boston 12
Washington 4 (Probable Division winner for 3rd seed)
Montreal 10
Ottawa 5
Islanders 4
Rangers 3

Leafs lead the tiebreaker with Boston, Washington & Montreal by ROWs and clinching a tiebreaker against any one of those teams will lower the magic number by a point.

Leafs have already clinched the tiebreaker with Ottawa, Islanders & Rangers.

According to sportsclubstats
http://www.sportsclubstats.com/NHL/Eastern/Northeast/Toronto.html
the Leafs currently have a :
2% chance of finishing 2nd
14% chance of finishing 4th
66% chance of finishing 5th
13% chance of finishing 6th
4% chance of finishing 7th
1% chance of finishing 8th

29% chance of facing Boston
54.9% chance of facing Montreal
11.8% chance of facing Washington
4.3% chance of facing one of the other playoff teams

5th place playing Montreal looks most likely.
 
I hoping for the Habs, it would be nice if the Leafs could past them and finish 4th for home ice. Either this team is playoff bound and thats all that matters.

The way Montreal is playing, home ice advantage and a series win are definite possibilities for the Leafs.
