If the NHL decides to do the 24 team "playoff" format to recover revenue, we have a very slim chance to be #24, but it could happen...lots would have to go right for us, while the bottom 7 would need to collectively struggle.
I'm not pro-tank, but I'd rather finish bottom 3 to get that 1OA (finally)...the Hockey Gods owe us, or Bettman does.
Chicago had 72 pts last year and we had 39. Kirby Dach is poised to take a step forward. I think we look more competitive this year, but not sure it amounts to us being much higher in the standings. I suppose not having to play the whole league could help our cause a bit.
But we won’t even have Seider until the SHL is over, right? Then it could take him a bit to acclimate to the NHL. So our blue line should still be pretty brutal yet again.
I like the depth chart on the wing, but we are still pretty weak down the middle and on the back end. I don’t know... a lot would have to go right.
