With the Bruins victory over the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday night, they officially punched their ticket to the 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs, eliminating the New York Rangers from postseason contention.
(Hats off to the Rangers though, as they played some great hockey down the stretch to make things interesting in the East...but it was simply too little too late.)
With the Rangers gone, the four teams qualifying for the playoffs in the East are the New York Islanders, Pittsburgh Penguins, Washington Capitals, and your Boston Bruins.
