They'll be disappointed if they don't get there.

I think on the Detroit management box, right, the Iser plan, this is the year they're supposed to be good.

They're going to make it.

They've been good all year.

They've just fallen out.

I know.

It's crazy.

And they're not playing.

Now, Larkin might return tonight.

And if he does, that's a huge boost against Ottawa, who has like four defensemen that aren't regulars playing.

So real challenge for them.

But I would go to Detroit because they've been there all year.

You thought they were going to get in.

They've fallen out.

It's been nine years since they've made it, and could they come up just short?

And the other one, I might slide over to Paddy Waugh and the Island.

While they've been a pleasant story, they're in eighth spot, and any time you play a team you have to beat gets very tense.

So they're playing Chicago, second worst team in the league at home.

They have to win as well, so I would be nervy in the Island if things don't go well tonight.

Well, I mean, I think because of where Kevin Adams' reputation was when he was dismissed, it's got to be Kev, no?
