If the Bruins gain any points tonight they clinch a playoff spot. Awesome. Preferably they'll win, but even an OT loss will get them to the postseason. Excellent.
Of course no week would be complete without some sort of weird injury, and Dennis Seidenberg's infected leg takes the cake today. We won't get to see Torey Krug appear just yet, though; Joe Corvo will be in for Seids tonight.
After the jump, the Predators clinched their playoff spot without doing anything last night, #LandeskogforCalder, a junior hockey flying V, and more Canucks fan shenanigans...
