LOL at Domi (Italy) and Markstrom (Sweden)
It's still stupidly early but if Boston plays at a ~100 point pace the rest of the way they'll end with 110 points. They have a clear path to first unless they struggle or we hit a very nice hot streak (which is very possible), or even bothhypothetically speaking if Leafs don't finish 1st in the division with either tampa/boston taking the first
and leafs finish 2nd or 3rd their likely match up may be either boston/tampa in the 1st round
If first is out the question, maybe it'll work out that they can tank a few for a WC berthhypothetically speaking if Leafs don't finish 1st in the division with either tampa/boston taking the first

I think we're too good for a WC tbh. The team sucks at 5v5 and we played our 4th stringer for like 3 weeks yet we're still 2nd in the division
Tampa's depth has taken a big hit, the losses of players like Palat/McDonagh is huge. They should be especially vulnerable now
If getting a playoff win is the goal they don’t really want to face TB. They may not be as good, but you cant count on them gifting two games in a best of 7 again.
I don't necessarily disagree, I think the Metro path is much easier than the Atlantic this year. But, I don't think we'll drop games on purpose and will establish a sizeable gap with the wildcard spots by the end of the season
It’s way too risky. It’s only Thanksgiving week and it looks like they’re in the same boat as they’ve been in the past 4 years and it may take a miracle, or a lot of luck to win a round again this year.
