Sure but once again I feel that the other teams in the central are getting overrated by our media guys. If we take care of our own business we will be fine.
Yeah, it's like they aren't aware that we went 19-8-2 against the Central. We scored 101 goals in those 29 games, and allowed only 73. We're good against our division rivals, and it's not like this was a flukey season, for example - we've owned Chicago for two years.
We've played poorly against the Pacific, and we're a bit better than .500 against the entire Eastern conference. THAT is where we need to improve.
Forget the Central.
Edit: Further to my point - we tied Chicago for top spot for games within the division, and we had a better goal differential. 40 of a possible 58 pts.
