As the National Hockey League playoffs get closer and closer, it is time to look at those teams that are NOT going to make the postseason. Several teams have been eliminated completely, and others are close to being done for.
Here are teams that will most likely fail to reach the postseason this spring, so make sure you read this before placing that NHL Playoff future bets:
2024 NHL Playoffs Betting: Teams that Most Likely Won’t Make the Postseason | MyBookie Hockey Betting Preview of the Season
San Jose Sharks
The Sharks appear to be heading to the best chance for the top pick in the draft. San Jose has dropped seven straight games, and have just 16 wins on the season. San Jose also has the worst goal differential in all of the league. The Sharks have been outscored by 130 goals this season. San Jose is in a rebuilding season, but it appears this will take several seasons to get them back on track.

Chicago Blackhawks
Connor Bedard missed parts of the season, but this has been yet another horrific season for the Chicago Blackhawks. Chicago is only ahead of the Sharks in the National Hockey League. Chicago sits with 45 points in 71 games. The defense has allowed 256 goals in 71 games, but the offense is even worse. Chicago has scored just 157 goals on the season, which is only two more than the Sharks. Chicago will be in line for another nice draft pick this summer.

Anaheim Ducks
The Ducks have several young guys that they will need to see progression from next year if they want to make a run at the postseason. Anaheim has battled at home much of the season, including taking Tampa to overtime recently in a loss.

Arizona Coyotes
February of 2024 is a month the Coyotes will want to forget for a long time. The Coyotes went the entire month without winning a game. The lone points they picked up during the month was when they lost in overtime at Nashville and Winnipeg. The Coyotes have only been outscored by 27 goals all season, but finding ways to win the close ones did not happen for them this season. There will be changes in Arizona, but it needs to start on the defensive side.
Montreal Canadiens
Through 70 games, the Canadiens have 64 points. While Montreal is not quite dead yet, they are on the brink of being eliminated. Montreal has been outscored by 50 goals on the season. The Canadiens have seen Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield put together solid seasons, but more help will need to come north of the border for the Canadiens to get back as a contender in the Eastern Conference.

Ottawa Senators
Despite recent back to back wins, the Senators are also in the same spot as Montreal. Another Canadian team that looks to be nearing elimination. Ottawa has 30 wins in 70 games. On the season, the Senators have been outscored by 24 goals. Ottawa has been pretty solid on the offensive side, but in the offseason getting some help on the defensive side needs to be at the top of the list.

Seattle Kraken
The Seattle Kraken had an awesome first season in the National Hockey League. A great regular season, and a better postseason. It came up a bit short Vegas, but it was one for the books. The second season has not quite been that magic. Seattle has 69 points in 70 games on the season. The Kraken have scored just 185 goals in 70 goals, something that will need to be fixed if they want another taste of postseason play.

Pittsburgh Penguins
Pittsburgh has been the definition of average this season. The Penguins are 30-30-10 on the season. They have 70 points in 70 games played. Pittsburgh has been outscored by 8 goals on the season. A franchise that has been at the top of the standings for many seasons is starting to fade, and the fans are getting anxious. It will be an interesting offseason in Pittsburgh to see what the roster looks like when they drop the puck in October.

Calgary Flames
Three straight losses, and seven out of their last 10 has not helped the Calgary Flames in their efforts to stay alive. The Flames are on the brink of elimination. He will need some offensive weaponry to help him as they start next season.
