My hot take?
- Boston is done coming at us or Ottawa but they could still take the 2nd wild card.
- New Jersey is done. Too many games and the metro is too good.
- Detroit and Buffalo, done, pack it in. Tampa looks bad but they're Tampa and I can't write them off just yet.
- The islanders and Florida are the scary teams.
- If we can stay up on Philly, were okay.
I wouldn't write up Buffalo or Detroit just yet.
Buffalo has picked it up a bit, Lehner is sporting a .920sv%+ and Kane has been red hot for them. They're getting healthier as well.
Detroit looks awful and will probably miss but at the same time they are masters of the loser point...they made the playoffs the last 2 years by scraping out as many loser points as possible. I do agree though the Islanders and Panthers are much scarier at this point.
