Calgary is actually a better home team than Vancouver. Their record is 11-4-1, they’re just really bad on the road. Vancouver for whatever reason is much better on the road (10-2-1) than they are at home (5-7-4). I haven’t looked into any context on this, just throwing it out there.Of the next 9 games, the middle 5 are what you could call "murderers row", but the 1st 2 and last 2 are winnable.
Winnipeg and Dallas rarely lose at home. Edmonton and Minnesota will be tough. If we can win against Seattle, St.Louis and Detroit, which feel like the most “winnable” games, it’ll go a long way in getting us at least a .500 record.
Thinking Merilainen will play vs Vancouver and Minnesota (assuming Forsberg isn’t back). If we get some good starts that will help, Ullmark basically gives us a chance to win any game.
