The New Jersey Devils' flickering playoff hopes may have gone down in flames with a 1-0 loss to Calgary Monday night.
The Rangers are heading to the playoffs, thanks to the Flames. Or maybe they should be thanking the Devils, whose 1-0 loss to Calgary on Monday cemented the idle Blueshirts' postseason berth.

Dainus Zubrus scored two goals and the New Jersey Devils beat the Carolina Hurricanes 3-1 on Saturday night.
Ryan Carter scored the tiebreaking goal with 4:54 remaining to lift the New Jersey Devils to a 2-1 win over the Washington Capitals on Friday night.
