NHL playoff standings 2017: Maple Leafs still fending off Lightning in the wild card

This could be the last dance for the Islanders and the last chance for the Maple Leafs to hold off the surging Lightning.

New York needs to get two points from the Devils on Saturday to keep their playoff hopes alive for one more day. If they don’t, they’re done.

And after Tampa Bay’s win in Montreal on Friday, the Leafs are just one point ahead of the Lightning in the race for the East’s final wild card berth.

Welcome to the last two days of the NHL regular season. Buckle up!

Montreal Canadiens vs. New York Rangers

Boston Bruins vs. Ottawa Senators

Washington Capitals vs. Toronto Maple Leafs

Pittsburgh Penguins vs. Columbus Blue Jackets

Chicago Blackhawks vs. Nashville Predators

Minnesota Wild vs. St. Louis Blues

Anaheim Ducks vs. Calgary Flames

Edmonton Oilers vs. San Jose Sharks

In the East:

Tampa Bay Lightning (Trailing Toronto in Wild Card by 1 points)

New York Islanders (Trailing Toronto in Wild Card by 3 points)

In the West:

Nobody.

All eyes will be on the Maple Leafs as they try to hold off the Lightning for the last playoff berth. They take on the Penguins at home, and ... oh, how sweet a #narrative if Phil Kessel helps keep the Maple Leafs from the playoffs.
