The Sabres will host the Devils in Buffalo tonight in a big 4-point game for the Conference title in the regular season. The Sabres have a magic number of 4 for the title and this is a game that could bring it down to 2 if it's done in regulation. On the other side of the table, Martin Brodeur (Box 18) will try to move one win closer to Bernie Parent's record of 47... a win will put Brodeur at 45 for the year.
The Carolina Hurricanes are in Philadelphia tonight to try and pull two points out of the City of Brotherly Love. The Hurricanes are currently two points back of Montreal for 8th with this game in hand. Even if the Hurricanes win, they will still be in 9th, as the Habs have more wins than the Hurricanes. The host Flyers will hope that their new goaltender, Martin Biron (Box 24), will start re-paying the new deal he received over the weekend.
Still mathematically in the race, the Panthers are this year's snowball's chance in hell of making it and they're hosting the current Southeast Division leader, Atlanta tonight. Atlanta, currently in the 3rd seed, will try to increase their lead over Tampa Bay to 4 points, as they even up the number of games played.
The Ducks are trying to outpace the Stars tonight with a win in Chicago. The Pacific-leading Ducks will even up the number of games with their division rival and hope for a 4-point lead. With 2 points tonight, the Ducks will move a little closer to the leading Central Division teams, Nashville and Detroit, but won't be able to catch them with this game alone.
