Quincey made a good play, so I guess he should win the Norris.

Hes always clutch that's why he makes the big bucks.

Great game for the Wings. Howard was great besides the last minute flub where Smith saved his ass. LGW!! Need to get into that 1st Wild Card spot. Boston is nearly unbeatable.

Don't we have a winning record against them this year?

Phaneuf just awful again tonight, -3, captain of the team, makes a lot more money than Kronwall.

Just wanted to toss that little fact out there.

He was. Not only in numbers, he was also on the ice on Helms shorthander which might be one of the worst defensive plays I ever saw. It's their D that is the problem, not their goalie. Sounds familiar somehow.....

I feel better knowing Tampa Bay's doing a back to back too...

Even better! lol

If we lose every game in OT we are guaranteed in? thats what I read from that website. Need 8 points it seems.

A win tomorrow puts our chances over 70%.

Where do these strange numbers come from. 6.5% for the Leafs? What are they, 10 points out or something.

Way too early to celebrate. Don't forget, we just came off a s*** losing streak and have too many tough games left.

We do, but they're a much better team than they were. That one's almost certainly gonna be a loss.

Tiebreakers tho.

Jackets and Wings have two games in hand, both teams have the tiebreaker and both teams are two points up. What that means is that Toronto essentially has to win out and Wings/Jackets can only get 9 points in the last 8 games. The odds of the Leafs winning out are insanely low, especially given how they've been playing.

Leafs are done, Capitals are the main threat. Essentially three teams vying for two spots.

Who is this Darren Helm and why isn't he receing speeding tickets

They need to gain 3 points on us in in their 6 games compared to our 8. Nobody is celebrating yet, but at this point Washington is the team to worry about staying ahead of.

No doubt the Wings can't lay off the gas. They still have to win games.

HUGE WIN HOPEFULLY BURIED THE LEAFS! Nothing like beating them.. And tonight was reason why Darren Helm is my favorite what a hustler!

[dat's sick 1,002]

Those percentages change so fast. This team can easily lose the next two games. Tampa and Boston. I don't care about what are odds are, until we're actually IN every game will have me a nervous wreck.

[matt198913 932]

3 goals 6 shots in 11 minutes of ice time.. Unreal game by Helm

All we're doing is laughing at the Leafs. I personally think the Wings will make the playoffs, but by no means do I think it is anywhere close to a done deal.

[wingfan1991 221]

Didn't read all the posts but highlight of night was the "let's go red wings" chants after Helm's second goal then getting drowned out by the boos. Great support tonight at ACC!

[DickieDunn 2,571]

They're in control of the spot though. 2 points over Washington, 2 points and 2 games in hand over Toronto, and the tie breaker over both teams. All they have to do is win and they're in, Toronto and Washington need to have another team stumble.

Toronto needs to have 2 teams stumble, on top of getting their own act together. Their goalies are burnt out.

[Hockeymom1960 5,107]

Didn't see the game but woah there certainly was a Nightemare on Helm Street tonight!!

I'm so happy for him.

[DatsyukianDekes 2,428]

Helm made a deal with his landlord not to evict Tatar and him if he got them some curly fries.

The Toronto Make Believes come through again.

No matter how bad things get for us WIngs fans, at least we aren't Leafs fans.
