Panthers need just 1 point, so if it goes into OT, I think the Panthers mail it in...

Panthers should be fighting their butts off all game though, cause if they don't win or get any points, they run the risk of sitting in 9th at the end of season. So lets hope for a hard fought game by the Panthers. I'm also hoping Brooks Laich's 'guarantee' of the playoffs is a giant jinx for them. Choke Caps Choke!

If it goes to OT, I may not survive to the next day anyways.

I will officially become a point system reform advocate. Maybe even something as radical as the shootout taking place, but given no xtra points(ie still 1 point each team), but if you end up tied in points, the team with the most SO wins gets the 1st tie-breaker advantage. This way the fans still get the novelty of the shootout, but it can't do anything as ridiculous as get a team a 3rd seed. I just made that up now, so feel free to flame the hell out of it if ya want.

Flame, flame, flame.

There. Feel better?
Sounds like a workable idea to me- send it in!
