Status quo
So much has been made of the East-West difference this yr...
So let's take that out of the equation and see how teams stand vs their own conference:
EAST
ATL
Bos 25, 18-7-0, 36pts, 0.720
Mon 19, 13-4-2, 28pts, 0.737
TBL 19, 11-7-1, 23pts, 0.605
Det 22, 11-5-6, 28pts, 0.636
Tor 18, 9-7-2, 20pts, 0.555
Ott 22, 12-6-4, 28pts, 0.636
Fla 16, 4-10-2, 10pts, 0.313
Buf 21, 5-14-2, 12pts, 0.286
METRO
Pit 25, 16-8-1, 33pts, 0.660
Was 17, 10-6-1, 21pts, 0.618
Car 18, 9-7-2, 20pts, 0.555
CBJ 23, 10-10-3, 23pts, 0.500
Phi 22, 11-9-2, 24pts, 0.545
NYR 21, 11-9-1, 23pts, 0.548
NJD 20, 9-8-3, 21pts, 0.525
NYI 20, 5-11-4, 14pts, 0.350
Just 3 really weak teams that get pounded on on the regular.
============
Reordering teams based on East only records (Pt%):
ATL
1. Mon 2. Bos 3. Ott 4. Det* 5. TBL* 6. Tor 7. Fla 8. Buf
METRO
1. Pit 2. Was 3. Car 4. NYR 5. Phi 6. NJD 7. CBJ 8. NYI
East vs East games make up 2/3 of the schedule (54 gms of 82)...
So Overall, Does this info tell us anything new?
