Sore Loser
Sorest of them all
Injuries are going to mount for every team. If Hall or Hischier -- or heaven forbid Schneider goes down for the Devils, they are toast. Same can be said for the Isles, even the Penguins. I actually think we're fine, as long as they can limp through this month our guys will get back and hopefully a break is just what the doctor ordered for a guy like Atkinson.
I think the Caps are a lock. Rangers seem to have found themselves too. Aside from that it's a real dog fight, but I like our chances. Sure we lost two points to these guys in the standings, but it's a long season and they are still 6 back, facing injuries and with nowhere near the depth we have. They are literally counting on three or four players to help them bring a team with an AHL defense back into the running. I like our odds better, even if they did get two points on us in two home games.
