An updated look at Flyers playoff scenarios



Flyers will need a Detroit regulation loss and a Pittsburgh regulation loss to have a chance, both teams play on Monday. If they both lose on Monday the Flyers would control their own destiny for the playoffs, (Washington game on Monday will determine if we need a regulation win or not). If either Detroit or Pitt gets a point or 2 points on Monday then the Flyers will be scoreboard watching on Tuesday in addition to needing a (potentially regulation) win.

    Detroit ends their season with back-to-back games, both against Montreal? Who designed this schedule

    What if DET and WAS both have two OTL?

    Edit: DET, not PIT.

    *bullet point 4* get rid of Rocky Thompson. And get a new special teams coach who understands how the power play works in this century

  4. We make the playoffs if we beat Washington in regulation + Pittsburgh/Detroit each get no more than 2 points in their last two games.

    Pitt plays Nashville and NYI. Detroit plays Montreal 2x.

    I hate myself for having nothing but grammar and punctuation questions.

    Starting with: 1. why is regulation capitalized in the middle of a sentence. 2. why is regulation not always capitalized in the middle of a sentence

  6. If I’m understanding this right, the Flyers-Caps game could be a win and in game for both teams. In that case, if the Flyers win, it’s the 5th tiebreaker (goal differential) that wins it for us, correct? Good thing we’re only a -25 goal differential.

    Wait but Detroit has us beat in a tiebreaker no? So if they win at least 1 of their last 2 games we’re out. Same goes for Washington, if they beat Boston Monday we’re out. I think we lose every tiebreaker. Pretty sure the teams fighting for this last spot just need to lose every single game remaining AND we need to win our last game in order to make the playoffs.

    I dunno about you but I’m ready to call it. No way of 6 remaining games amongst the 3 of them they all go 0-6.
