I don't know the numbers, but to the eye test we suck ass against backups. So I would rather see bobColumbus is playing Korpisalo (.903) against LA. We get Bobrovsky (.920). That's not going to help
Too bad our last game is in a building where it's tough to get any energy going.This feels like one of those seasons where it'll be settled on the last day.
that number felt high to me before but now seems right with all of the teams in the hunt. Who would have thought Colorado would be in the mix.I still feel like 98/99 points is the magic number. Currently at 76 points.
17 games left, need to win 10, lose 2 in OT and loss 5. Or some combo of that
I still think it's more likely than not that we don't make it. Need to string a lot of wins together and we need at least one of the teams ahead of us to fall apart more or less. But they all play each other.
I don't think 96 points will do it. Maybe 98, but we have fewer ROWs than everyone we're battling. I think we need to take it outright.No we don’t need to string a lot of wins together. That’d be ideal. Bt not necessary- we can back into the playoffs by going 10-7, 11-6, that’s not even 2 wins for every loss.
69% now.
7-1-1 in our last 9, and those two were stupid loses. Need at least 10 wins
So 52% with bieksa in the lineup or 79% with bieksa scratched.69% now.
7-1-1 in our last 9, and those two were stupid loses. Need at least 10 wins
80 points, playoff chances up to 78%.
8-5-2, 7-4-4, 9-6 records in our last 15 games gets us into the playoffs.
Any site having us at 12% after the Chicago game needs to check it's formula. Every place I have seen has us in the 80% range.Whete do you get these from? I know the Athletic's guy has us at like 87% and that Moneypuck website had us at 12% after the Chicago game, but I don't know of anyone else who does it.

Vegas is starting to look like the smoke and mirrors are coming apart, so whoever comes out of the Pacific will have the easiest road to the conference final. The Ducks right now would get SJ then VGK/LA which is substantially easier than if they finished as the second wild card and they'd have to face Nashville then Winnipeg.
Wouldn't Vegas play Dallas? L.A. would get Nashville
Oh yeah, that's right. The key is to not finish in that 8th seed.
As of right now, I think the Ducks can beat any team in the conference except Nashville but they definitely want to avoid Winnipeg if possible as they're far and away the second strongest team. To have any chance of making it to the SC final they need to go through the easier road of San Jose/Vegas/LA/DAL and hope for Nashville and Winnipeg to suffer some injuries. Finishing as the 8th seed is basically like not qualifying for the playoffs at all.
