I'm about to go to bed and won't be around a computer until tomorrow afternoon, so I'm getting this post up tonight.
The Stars won, but so did St. Louis. Fortunately, the Wild lost in a shootout to Colorado and the Oilers lost to Atlanta on a breakaway scored by former Oiler, Marty Reasoner. And the Rangers beat Nashville, 4-2.
As a result, Dallas reclaims the 8th and final playoff spot, but St. Louis and Anaheim both have a game in hand on Dallas each.
Updated standings after the jump.
