We need at least 9/18 pts

 

[Carl Karlsson]

Went 3-5, very hard schedule but if they keep playing well I think 5 win is very possible. Anything more and I'll be over the moon.

 

[Senscore]

I doubt it. This is a tough lineup.


But I do think they'll be in a good position to get back there once it's done.

 

[GCK]

Come back with 9 points including 4 wins and we will be in the hunt.

 

[Micklebot]

Over the previous two seasons, the road team has averaged about 1.05 pts per game, while Home teams have averaged 1.17. So we basically need 9.5 pts on this road trip to keep pace with that,

Anything over 500 is on pace to put us in the playoffs, 500 on the dot is fine, but means we might need to make it up later.

They have 8/9 at home in April. Perfect time if they need to make up games or get a hot streak going.

Nothing good can come from this thread. Just enjoy the ride.

 

[2CHAINZ]

We will be in first place by Jan 8th

 

[Tuna99]

Hopefully Forsbger is only injured short term.

Merilinan could be good, could be bad, it’s a risk though

 

[Ralph Malfredsson]

9 wins of course

 

[The Waffler]

A playoff team this January 8th and every January 8th after that.

 

[Alex1234]

A long road trip like this away from the newborns could be good for Brady and Claude
Let's hope Giroux can catch up the step he is missing so far this season

 

[BankStreetParade]

We will be in first place by Jan 8th

I think we need a new poll to guess what we'll be first place in by Jan 8th.

 

[Nova Stutzlia]

Of the next 9 games, the middle 5 are what you could call "murderers row", but the 1st 2 and last 2 are winnable.
