Let's take a look at the current playoff situations for both conferences. As far as the "bubble" teams go, I think I have everything figured right. If you guys spot mistakes, let me know, we'll go over them and make corrections if needed:

Eastern Conference:

Boston Bruins: IN. Clinched first overall in the Eastern Conference

Washington Capitals: IN. Have clinched their division, and the Caps just need one point won, or one point lost by the Devils to wrap up the Number 2 seed.

New Jersey Devils: IN. Need one point won, or one point lost by the Flyers to wrap up the Atlantic Division title and finish 3^rd overall.

Philadelphia Flyers: IN. Currently in 4^th place overall, with a game at hand on Carolina, who also have 97 points.

Carolina Hurricanes: IN. Currently sitting in 5^th place overall. They will probably need to win out and get some help to get home ice in the opening round.

Pittsburgh Penguins: IN. Currently 6th overall. Could move up to 4^th if Flyers and Hurricanes lose out.

Montreal Canadiens: ON THE BUBBLE. Currently in 7^th place. One point or Florida loss and they are in.

New York Rangers: ON THE BUBBLE. Currently in 8^th place. One win or a loss by Florida and Buffalo, and they are in.

Florida Panthers: OUTSIDE LOOKING IN. Currently in 9^th place. They need to win their last two, and hope the Rangers lose their last two.

Buffalo Sabres: HOPING FOR DIVINE INTERVENTION. Currently in 10^th place. They need to win all three remaining games (Toronto, Carolina, Boston), and hope the Rangers lose out, and they also need Florida to lose once.

Western Conference:

San Jose Sharks: IN. Currently 1^st overall. Can wrap up the President's Trophy with one more win.

Detroit Red Wings: IN. Currently 2^nd overall.

Calgary Flames: IN. Currently 3^rd overall. They have the same number of points (96) as the Canucks, but are first in the division because they have two more wins. Both teams have 2 games remaining.

Chicago Blackhawks: IN. Currently 4^th overall. They will face whoever loses the Calgary-Vancouver battle.

Vancouver Canucks: IN. Currently 5^th overall. Need to win out and have Calgary lose once to flip flop positions with them.

Columbus Blue Jackets: ON THE BUBBLE. Currently 6^th overall. One more win and they secure their 1^st playoff berth.

Anaheim: ON THE BUBBLE. Currently 7^th overall. A win and a Nashville loss, and they are in.

St. Louis Blues: ON THE BUBBLE. Currently 8^th overall. A win and a Nashville loss, and they are in.

Nashville Predators: OUTSIDE LOOKING IN. Currently 9^th overall. Need to win their remaining two games, and get a lot of help.

Minnesota Wild: PRAYING FOR DIVINE INTERVENTION. Currently 10^th overall. Need to win their remaining 2 games, and hope for losses by the teams ahead of them.
