Latest News/Notes:
We have reached Game 76.
But yet there are many uncertainties as to who the Devils will face in the first round.
First, the updated standings:
- Toronto: 89 points, .593
- Syracuse: 88 points, .587
- Albany: 81 points, .540
- St. John’s: 80 points, .533
- Utica: 79 points, .527
Toronto and St. John’s finish off a two game set, while Utica travels to Syracuse in a last ditch attempt to extend their season. What St. John’s, Utica, and Albany do today will determine who the third and fourth North seeds are. Also still in the air: who clinches the division title? Syracuse still trails Toronto by one point at the start of business today. I could go through every single scenario, but we’d be sitting here till next year. Let’s just enjoy the last regular season home game and see where everything falls.
