Have we ever been 14 games over .500?
We finished up the 14-15 season with 17 games above fake .500, though we were only 4 games above true .500.

17-17-4 to finish the season gets us to 97pts, or just over the 6 in 5 line. That's a 97.9% chance of making the playoffs.
I... I don't know how to do that...Let's put this in perspective.
Last year we finished 40-35-7. That's a better points percentage than we need to get to 97. If only count up to the last game before we finally cracked the 3 wins in a row streak, we would have exactly 35-35-7.
I think it might be time to stop looking at the playoff line, and start looking at what it would take to get home ice in the first round.

True. Under the current division system, the highest amount of points for a non-playoff team was Boston's 96 in 14-15. What made that year so special was four teams finishing with under 70 points, and Carolina only beating that by one point. It would probably take half of the playoff teams finishing with under 70 points to render the 6 in 5 rule useless, and with the parity of today, I can't see that happening.
96pts has usually been enough to make the playoffs. No team that has finished with 98pts has ever missed.

I'm liking where we're sitting right now. 15-15-4 should be pretty doable.
Lots of home games left... 17 3 1.
Think 15 15 4 would be disappointing
Boston missed recently at 96 points. Only one time that I can find. A few have finished with 95 and missed. 95 points is safe the majority of the time. Nobody has missed finishing with 97 points or higher.

Yeah but all you have to do is look at our division and know that it's not gonna be anywhere near as safe this season. If central keeps up like this, you never know. What are the other teams in the division on pace for?

Ahh okay I see98pts? It'll be safe. Has to do with points distribution as well.
