Let's face it, we toss around the term "must win" pretty loosely. In my humble opinion, last night's game against the Hurricanes was indeed a must win if we're going to make the playoffs this season. A loss would have been devastating.
We're tied with Carolina for 9th, two points behind Tampa Bay and Montreal. We have a valuable game in hand on those two teams, so all we have to do is win. Thursday night in Atlanta is yet another must win game as the annual tease continues.
