	Game notes

CAR
•Frederik Andersen (19-8-0, 2.44 GAA, .903 Sv%) will likely start for the Hurricanes

TOR
•Matt Murray (14-7-2, 2.92 GAA, .906 Sv%) will likely start for the Maple Leafs
•Toronto didn't practice on Friday, so I'm assuming they use the same line-up as they did on Thursday with the exception of Rielly coming back in for Gustafsson

Boston plays Tampa today.  Good opportunity to potentially gain ground if they can beat Carolina again.

[lamajama]

TB will beat Boston just because.

My math might be off, but would a Leafs regulation win and Panthers regulation loss clinch a playoff spot tonight?

edit: Nope.  Panthers could still theoretically still pass the Leafs in RW, which is the first tiebreaker.  Still, they're close!

I hate fighting like this. Somebody important gets hurt and there go the playoffs.

Also, Tampa lost. If the leafs go .500, Tampa needs to win the rest of their games to catch them. Leafs have sewn up 2nd barring catastrophe.

PLEASE never use the word "catastrophe" and the Leafs in the same sentence. I've just seen too much.

Kinda okay with those two teams trying to goon each other over.

[azzurri63]

Thanks ref's. One hand on your stick and get called for hook. F you.

[Guilt Trip]

What a load...Yes to the 1st but weak on the 2nd to go 5 on 3

[Arn]

Well if that's the threshold for a hook this game is going to see a hell of a lot of time with teams on special teams.

Let's see if they call everything like that.

It's a one-sided standard

[azzurri63]

I hate this league now. Far too often refs decide the game. F'kn joke.

[Guilt Trip]

Nice play by Murray there.
