Isles cliinch top-2 seed

Colorado 0, San Jose 0 (end regulation)


With the Avs assured of a point (unless they pull their goalie and get scored on in OT), the Avs will have at least 67 points. Since they already have 32 wins, they will finish ahead of the Isles. This means that the Isles are assured of a top-2 seed in the draft next week and could clinch the #1 seed on Thursday with: a regulation loss in Pittsburgh OR a Tampa win over Washington OR each team earning 1 point

Forever1940 is the nom de plume of Eric Hornick, statistician on Islander home telecasts since 1982.
