24-25 Season Point Prediction

[izlez]

The upward trajectory continues...

92

 

[raymond23]

My excitement level for this team is super low right now which sucks because we have some really awesome players

The defense and goaltending are simply not good enough on paper and I’m having a hard time seeing them overcome that

89 points

The team should continue to improve, I think 94/95 points is a reasonable expectation based on team and AHL depth, unless there are some major long term injuries.

I don't know if 95 points is enough to make into the playoffs this year, I am expecting to see some major closings of the gap from top to bottom in the east, but the top guys will still eek out enough to claim the playoff spots this year, unless they get hit with major injuries, then anything is possible.

 

[dalem177]

94 pts. I think that'll be a c-hair short of playoffs.

(IMO the most important thing this year is learning how to win without Larkin. Gotta happen.)

 

[RedWingzz]

82 pts

Maybe the Red Wings reach 100 points.

Maybe the Red Wings reach next round.

Defensemen worsening.

Stanley Cup certainly.

Well, we are 20 games into the season. Anyone want to update their prediction?

There were some great posts in early October.

 

[lilidk]

My prediction was 85 ., but I believe it is too optimistic. We should have small selloff and my new guess 75 points

 

[Snuggs]

EDIT*

 

[Fantast100]

85 or 95.

 

[gritdash60]

No idea about points, but i predict wings will be back to under 250 goals scored and its not going to even be close.

My prediction 214 goals (lowest since 2016-2017).

This team is a top 6F or top 2D injury away from picking top 5 in the draft. Despite Mo/Ed/DBC/Larkin/Ray being really solid core pieces this may be the worst mid/bottom 6/bottom 4 performance I've seen on Detroit since the historically bad year.

 

[Snuggs]

79 points.

Selling at TDL.

 

[SCD]

Doesn't matter how many players they sell or how many injuries they have, their best run of the season we be the last 10 games.

Yeah, it's like we have 4 Daleys instead of just one, a pair of Nielsens, and a bunch of Ernes to round out the roster. We even have the new version of Howie with a worse SV%.

Quit frankly, I think this thread should be closed. Bringing it up to the top feels like trolling, except I'm trolling myself because I was WAAAAAAY off.

 

[Snuggs]

Oh yeah geeze... lets close it down cause some people were a little off on offseason predictions and look silly...

Been around Seattle too long pal. No safe space around here!
