The Columbus Blue Jackets clinched the 16th and final berth in the 2019 playoffs with a 3-2 shootout win over the New York Rangers on Friday night. The all-in Blue Jackets will enter the final day of the regular season as the second wild card seed and will need a regulation win vs the Ottawa Senators combined with a Hurricanes loss against the Flyers to move into the top wildcard spot and avoid the Tampa Bay Lightning in Round 1.

But instead, you discount the Kucherov, stamkos and Point factors…
Well… if Stamkos can stay engaged in elimination games 😉
He seems to be hot until later in series especially deeper into the post season. So ya he’s an X factor. If he can continue to maintain paces he opens with TB is a scary opponent
Npl suckss
Nope, Montreal sucks, and sucks and sucks and sucks lol
At least habs came close to make the playoffs with that ahl team when on papers they were probably suppose to be last team or so. Mean while so called best player in the league missed the playoffs again with the spOilers

Hey Sam… what about that Matt Murray? Or have you missed so many games you’re completely unsure?
They would have been better off finishing last and getting a high pick.
