I'll be going to Easter Vigil Mass at 4:30pm. Going to take out my fiancee for dinner after. And then I hope to catch some of THE game on Saturday, like many east of Manitoba. I'm even going to try to come up with time to setup the VCR in case I miss it.
Habs. Leafs. Leafs win, they're in. Habs win (or lose in OT) they're in.
Whose planning on watching?
EDIT: Edited to add; GO HABS GO.

The Maple Leafs aren't necessarily in if they win. The never-say-die New York Islanders will get the #8 spots if they win their remaining two games and the Leafs beat the Canadiens tonight. Slim, but possible.
The battle for #8 continues out West as the Flames try to hold off the resurgent Avalanche for that position. If the Flames beat Edmonton tonight or the Avalanche lose to the Predators, the Flames are in. Otherwise, it comes down to a winner take all game tomorrow between Calgary and Colorado.
I'm going to be at the grand opening of Flames Central tonight and I think there's going to be some really unhappy drunks if the Flames don't pull it off against the Oilers.
NYI won this afternoon, so if they can beat NJ tomorrow then they're in. MY hope is that the leafs win by 20 tonight, and then the Islanders beat NJ in a shootout tomorrow.
Of course, that's cuz I'm a Leaf's fan who realizes that this team will NEVER get better if they keep sneaking into the ass-end of the playoffs every year. #15 in the East this year was my dream because it would FINALLY mean a Raptor-Like change would be coming. Instead I got Tucker resigned....

I hear yah...I've been a Leafs fan since birth, and I keep hoping. I'll be glued to the tube for the Canadiens/Leafs game.
I think the Leafs may go far in the playoffs if they make it. They can get dirty if their backs are against the wall. Well. that, or they shrivel up and die...either or. I'm hoping for the former.
I've seen THREE movies so far this year: Because I Said So - (3*); Borat - (5*); Children Of Men - (4*)

Go Habs...if only for the fact that it means the Leafs DON'T make the playoffs and I won't have to hear about them. :)
You know, I can sympathize with you. If the Leafs miss the playoffs, I think we'll get the broadcast of what should be a far more entertaining series - Pittsburgh/Ottawa. But if the Isles lose today and the Leafs squeak in, everyone will have to see Toronto/Buffalo. We all know how that's going to go.
Even as a Leaf fan, I'd rather watch the Pens and Sens get it on.
However, that Leafs/Habs game last night was just sick. Words can't describe how entertaining that was.
Fuck the Leafs. How am I supposed to be upset that they missed the playoffs when they didn't deserve it? All props to the Islanders, who won when it counted, unlike a certain favourite team of mine.
On the bright side, missing the playoffs means that the reign of John Ferguson Jr. may finally come to an end. Maybe MLSE will take notes from their successful hiring of Colangelo for the Raptors and actually hire a hockey man with an actual brain to run their franchise.
I don't know what is more disquieting -- the fact that the rest of the statue is missing, or that it has four toes.
