Vegas seems to be a really shitty organization.

Welp, it's over. No playoffs for Eichel and Vegas heads to the lottery. Not without drama though, as Dallas blew a 3-0 3rd period lead, only to lose 4-3 in OT to Arizona. They get their point to clinch, but stumble into the playoffs not playing great hockey. Vegas didn't do themselves any favors, losing to Chicago in about the 20th round of the shootout (Eichel missed). They have lost their last 3 games via the shootout. Amazing. So the playoff teams are now set, but the matchups still need to be determined. I believe they currently line up as follows:Dallas beat Vegas in a shootout, 3-2. 7-round shootout, only 1 scorer. VGK was pretty much porked when it got to OT, but the nail is 99% of the way there now.
LAK, NSH clinch. Dallas needs 1-poin in their final 2 (@ Arizona tonight; vs. Anaheim on Friday). Vegas needs to win both of theirs to have a chance (@ Chicago; @ St. Louis).
I thought with the loss tonight and the Bruins win, Bruins get 1 point tomorrow to make life miserable for Tampa needing a win to retain A3.BOS @ TOR tomorrow at 7pm
TB @ NYI tomorrow at 7:30pm
If BOS wins, TB needs a win (regular, OT or SO) to retain A3
If BOS ties, TB needs a win or tie during regular time (OT/SO result is irrelevant) to retain A3
If BOS loses, TB retains A3 and BOS will face CAR in the 1st round.
I mean, I know they rested their key guys and all....
