Bold prediction or maybe not so much but I believe 7 of the 8 teams currently in the Top 8 in the East make the playoffs
Current top 8 is
Montreal
Tampa
Boston
NYR
NYI
WASH
PITT
OTT
Yup - They needed the Wild to beat Dallas on the last day to get in that year.
Central is a BRUTAL division and the Hawks are currently 6th - it will be a month before Keith comes back so they have problems.
Losing Keith is about like the Bruins situation last season. Problem for the Hawks is their division is the deepest in the NHL and every point counts-however I would never count the Hawks out-they have some solid, elite forwards and IMO probably the best active coach in the game.
But they may dig a hole too hard to climb out of while Keith is out.
