Who will play Nashville in the Finals?
The Leafs would take the 8th spot. Both teams would end up with 91 points, but the Islanders would still only have 39 wins, compared to Toronto's 40.The Islanders must win today to make the playoffs.
(If the Islanders did have 40 wins, we'd look at other criteria. First, number of points earned in games between the two teams. Then, if there's still a tie, goal differential).

Toronto has more wins then the Isles so the Isles NEED to win. But I rather see Buffalo-Toronto then Buffalo-Islanders. Islanders without Rick they would get killed and be swept.

If two or more clubs are tied in points in the regular season, the standing of the clubs is determined in the following order:1. The greater number of games won.
2. The greater number of points earned in games between the tied clubs. If two clubs are tied, and have not played an equal number of home games against each other, points earned in the first game played in the city that had the extra game shall not be included. If more than two clubs are tied, the higher percentage of available points earned in games among those clubs, and not including any "odd" games, shall be used to determine the standing.
4. The greater differential between goals for and against for the entire regular season.
