Around the NHL — Episode XLXVII

[Bjornar Moxnes]

For all the talk about Sens having an unsustainable PP, the Wings are having an even more unsustainable PP while having awful 5on5 chance generation and overall goals produced. Wings look awful in every way shape and form outside of goaltending so far.

Carolina played better than us.

The losses that hurt are the games against the Flyers and even Rangers where we completely dominated.

Those might hurt at the end of the season.

Golden knights loss will be the worst. Flyers are a close 2nd

Call me crazy but I think we comfortably make the playoffs a few weeks before the end of the season.

Honestly things haven’t been great in terms of outcomes but the way the standings are shaping up it’s in their hands completely whether they make the playoffs or not.

It’s a much better position than we have been in previous years. Let’s hope they keep playing the way they’ve been, that we stay healthy, and that our goalies give us average/good goaltending and I think we should make it.

You may be right, you may be crazy.

...But it just might be a lunatic I'm lookin forrrrr

 

[GCK]

The Sens being in a playoff spot on November 19th feels good.

Vegas and Colorado hurt the most as we really should have had at least 3 points there. Philly sucked too. Another point pissed away (although it was on Ullmark entirely)

Rangers game, we just ran into one of the best goalies in the league

Cool we might get a desperate Oilers team tomorrow.

Just when it can't get any better!

^ It's true. First I thought, great we're getting Skinner. Than you watch EDM lay an egg and you know they're going to have a big rebound game.

How are we in a playoff position?

 

[BondraTime]

How are we in a playoff position?

Point percentage I'm assuming, they are 8th in the east

They aren't in the playoffs, in fact they are in 11th. But they have 3 games in hand on Boston, 1 on Islanders, and 2 on Philly, while being 1 and 2 points behind.

OK...I thought as much, but there is no guarantee we win all those games in hand (as you know).

If the trend continues, we will be fortunate to have a clear top 6 and then teams that are struggling around us.

If we can get some goaltending to compliment our overall play, I think we can create some space.

f***, I didn't realize the Shitbird Red Wings got a point last night. They only have to eat half a bag of shit now.
