Re: 2023-2024 NHL Season

Red Wings score with 3 seconds left to force OT.

ETA: that eliminates the Flyers as well.

Seems kind of insane that a shootout could determine a playoff berth. (Washington gets in even with a SO win.)

Re: 2023-2024 NHL Season

Say what you want about the Red Wings but their games aren’t boring. It feels like every game in which they are not shut out involves one team making a comeback of three goals, minimum. STILL. Three teams battling for one spot in Game 82. Fun stuff. ETA: I guess technically Philly isn’t eliminated ...

I think they had the highest wage bill in League Two so gonna start getting a lot tougher from here. But League One is a big deal. Start playing some decent sized clubs at that level. They might be able to retrench to get to the Championship by 2026.
