The second half of a back to back on the road while Ottawa sits for two days doesn’t sound ideal.

Devils, Avalanche?

Better beat Montreal. Really better beat Montreal.

2-3

 

[Zman5778]

10/23 - Canadiens 7pm est. -- WIN
10/24 - @ Sens 6:45pm est. ( wtf is with this weird time?) -- LOSS
10/27 - @ Devils 7pm est. -- OT/SO LOSS
10/29 - Avalanche 1pm est. -- WIN
11/01 - @ Flyers 7pm est. -- WIN

3-1-1

Why the weird time? Apparently the NHL is trying something in the States. EVERY team is playing on Tuesday, and no game starts at the same time. Game 1 starts at 6:00 PM ET and Game 16 starts at 11:00 PM ET. ESPN/ESPN2/ESPN+ is doing a "Frozen Frenzy" RedZone-like thing all night too.

Thank you.. I was wondering what that was all about.

Better beat Montreal. Really better beat Montreal.

2-3

Montreal to Ottawa is a 2-hour bus ride. Do they even bother flying?

Always a challenge back-to-back on the road, but that's as easy as travel gets outside the Metro. Same as Buffalo-Toronto.

10/23 - Canadiens Win
10/24 - @ Sens OT loss
10/27 - @ Devils Loss
10/29 - Avalanche Loss
11/01 - @ Flyers Win

2-2-1

They’re not in Montreal. They’re in Buffalo

 

[Bendium]

Thier road record was good last year so:

Win: Montreal and Philly.
Lose: Av's
Split: Sens/Devs on the road.

3-2

[SwordsgoneWild]

Went 3-2. Got back to .500. It's a start in the right direction. Here's the next 5 -

11/03 Flyers 7pm
11/04 @ Maple Leafs 7pm
11/07 @ Hurricanes
11/10 Wild 7pm
11/11 @ Penguins 7:30


No rest for the wicked. This is an even harder stretch...I will go 3-2

Flyers -W
Maple Leafs -L
Hurricanes -L
Wild -W (OT)
Penguins- W.

 

[Bendium]

3-1-1

Flyers -W
Maple Leafs -OTL
Hurricanes -L
Wild -W
Penguins- W.

 

[Ace]

3-2

 

[SwordsgoneWild]

2-2-1 this time around. Back to .500 after having a winning record for 1 measly night lol... The Flyers and Penguins games were inexcusable. Now we have 5 games in 11 days coming up with a 3 game road trip in there.

11/14 Bruins 7pm
11/17 @ Jets 8pm
11/19 @ Blackhawks 7pm
11/22 @ Capitals 7pm
11/24 Penguins 6pm

4-1 . It might be wishful thinking but I can see us beating everyone but Boston. It's high time that we go on a streak.... Need to get the PP going though ffs. It's inexcusable to be 28th in the league with the talent that we have. They need to get their shit together.

 

[HaNotsri]

2-3
I think they will have a terrible dip, then sputter and another dip.

11/14 - Bruins 7pm L 1-4
11/17 - @ Jets 8pm L 3-5
11/19 - @ Blackhawks 7pm 3-2 ot win
11/22 - @ Capitals 7pm 5-2 W
11/24 - Penguins 6pm L 2-4

 

[SwordsgoneWild]

2-2-1 again ... Took 5 points across our last 3 games...Now we head onto the road for a 4 game trip against tough comp.

11/25 @ Devils
11/27 @ Rags
11/30 @ Blues
12/02 @ Hurricanes
12/03 Predators

Let's hope that this latest volley of points is a sign of things to come.... I would really love something like 3-1-1 but my gut says we will probaly go 2-3 or something . Prove me wrong team.

I will predict 3-2 .

Devils - L
Rags - W
Blues - W
Canes - L
Preds - W

 

[SwordsgoneWild]

1-4.... Just absolute trash. I think this might be the worse 5 game stretch since I started doing these. This team is completely f***ing hopeless. The Devils and Hurricanes were ass kickings from start to finish.

Next 5 --

12/05 Red Wings
12/07 @ Bruins
12/09 Habs
12/11 Coyotes
12/13 @ Avalanche


Who gives a shit ? Seriously. I'll say 1-4 again. We'll beat the Coyotes.. I hope the team's bus breaks down on a desolate highway somewhere in Utah . Go f*** yourselves Buffalo. Both your sports teams need a swift kick in the junk.

 

[SwordsgoneWild]

2--2-1 over these past 5.... Its improvement over the previous 5 but my interest has started to wane . I will still suffer through the season but i have no hope . The team is incapable of putting together a win streak so far... Pretty much the only reason that I'm still doing this is to document how we fared during each 5 game stretch. Game #30 is in the books. 52 to go . Yay.

Next 5 -

12/15 @ Knights
12/16 @ Coyotes
12/19 Blue jackets
12/21 Maple Leafs
12/23 @ Rangers

This team is mediocre so 2-2-1 again.

[MarkusKetterer]

0-4-1. Because this team sucks. If they have more than a point, that’s a bonus.

 

[SwordsgoneWild]

2-2-1 for the 4th time this year. Definition of mediocrity. Nothing else needs to be said.

Next 5 -

12/27 Bruins 7 :30 PM
12/30 Blue Jackets 5 PM
12/31 @ Senators 6 PM
1/04 @ Habs 7 PM
1/06 @ Penguins 7 PM


Gee, I wonder what I should predict? .... 2-2-1 until further notice.

[BB79]

I predict:

12/27 Bruins 7 :30 PM W (B's have dropped 5 of 6)
12/30 Blue Jackets 5 PM  L (REALLY hope I'm wrong)
12/31 @ Senators 6 PM L(Dud teams always beat us)
1/04 @ Habs 7 PM  OTL
1/06 @ Penguins 7 PM W/OT

2-2-1

Goes in line with beating the better teams while dropping the stinkers.

 

[MarkusKetterer]

0-5-0. Anything else is a bonus.

 

[yasky]

I'll play with fire: After the Boston loss they beat the Jackets and Sens, Lose to the Habs, but beat the Pens in OT.

I gotta stop drinking in the afternoon.

 

[SwordsgoneWild]

3-2 and back to back wins?! Talk about baby steps... Next 10 out of 13 are at home including the next 6. This is a chance .

Next 5 -

1/09 Kraken ( please beat them finally)
1/11 Sens
1/13 Canucks
1/15 Sharks
1/17 Blackhawks


Looks like we play every other day from Tuesday on for the next 5 . Since we finally won 2 in a row again I'll be alittle optimistic. 3-2

W- We will finally beat this team

[SwordsgoneWild]

3-2 again and back to back SO .... Trending up... If we can beat the Lightning on Saturday then we'll be in a nice position to gain even more points after with this west coast trip coming up. I hope we sweep it .


1/20 Lightning
1/23 @ Ducks
1/24 @ Kings
1/27 @ Sharks

Break

2/06 Stars


I say 3-1-1 and dare hope to call it a resurgence. Yes, I'm allowing myself to get my hope up again. Damn fool.

5-2 on the year. They win 4 out of next 5 to make it 9-3.
