If the NHL playoffs started today

With the NHL's regular season winding down, the jockeying for Stanley Cup playoff positions becomes more intense.

On Tuesday, the Rangers clinched the Presidents' Trophy while the Jets and Flames skated to key victories. Thanks to a Los Angeles loss, the Canucks claimed a playoff spot. The Senators haven't jumped back into a playoff spot yet, but their comeback win over the Penguins moved them into a tie in terms of points with the idle Bruins, who currently hold the final wild -ard spot in the Eastern Conference.
