I think .500 would be a reasonable guess. Whether that’s 7-7, 6-6-2, or any other combination that gets them 14/28pts.

That would be pretty depressing. I really hope Botts gives us an upgrade in time.

I look at the travel and the team's involved and their history, combined with the streakiness of their netminding combo and lack of 5-on-5 production, and being generally outplayed possession-wise since the first week of the year and I don't get a warm and fuzzy.

We're in for a wake up call. Although maybe not us, because I feel like most of the people on here have a realistic view of how good this team is. (fringe playoff team)

Tampa Bay is more vulnerable now than they have been in a long time, I say we take 2 out of 3 vs them. I'm gonna say we go at least .500 with however many OT losses you wanna sprinkle in there.

One of the 16 stats from Dom is us having the toughest November schedule. Let the meat grinder begin!



For November, based only on average opponent expected win percentage:

And toughest:

1. Buffalo Sabres: 0.536
2. St. Louis Blues: 0.521
3. New York Rangers: 0.517
4. Chicago Blackhawks: 0.517
5. Philadelphia Flyers: 0.516

The Sabres are off to a dream start, but November will do a lot to prove whether this team is the real deal or not. The Canucks, for what it’s worth, have the sixth toughest schedule.

Not that it’s impossible, but I’d be fairly surprised if we dropped all 3 TB games. Idk if you’ve watched much of them this year but they’re terrible in their own end in the games I’ve seen.

I'm going with .500 too. Doesnt seem to much optimism to be found

I think this is the most bullshit of a schedule I've ever witnessed. So the hardest schedule in the NHL in terms of WHO we play, 5 back to back games though 2 of them are against the same team so kinda doesn't count, a trip across the ocean which could mess up anyones clock, 10 games crammed into 17 days YIKES, and to top it all off the end of that rough month ends against a back to back against a rested Leafs team.

Love it :sarcasm:

Yeah it's really rough..come out of this with 14/28 points and I'll be content...less than 10 and it probably tells us this is another year of no playoffs

Minnesota, Ottawa at home have to be wins.

Tampa and Toronto are not as good as they were last year. Also Hedman is on the IR. Only positives about that schedule.

Rest is overrated. Bye week was supposed to let the Bills heal and rest up they've looked like complete shit since.
