How many wins?

[Pyrophorus]

Assuming a 48 schedule season is going to happen, throw a number
of how many wins you think the Leafs will get.

I'm not going to be strict, you can include points, full records,
standings. Just thought we should have a bit of levity.

Myself
Low:24
High: 30

[Bomber0104]

High...20

Low...12

 

[ACC1224]

Impossible to predict when you don't know the roster.

 

[Ruki]

Enough to get into the playoffs.

Or enough to get first overall.

 

[Mystifo]

With Luongo: Low: 24 High: 32

Without Luongo and assuming Reimer is still a shadow: Low: 13 High: 18


Stable goaltending will make or break this team.

 

[darrylsittler27]

Depends...

20 plus unless we trade for washed up Luongo in which case it will drop due to the bad start.

 

[Grant]

More wins than last year I am ambitious

 

[CmonLeafs]

With Luongo: Low: 24 High: 32

Without Luongo and assuming Reimer is still a shadow: Low: 13 High: 18


Stable goaltending will make or break this team.

This. Honestly believe Luongo is the difference between a playoff spot and a bottom-3 spot.

 

[hockeyfanz*]

48 games?

21-22-5 for 47 points....good enough for 11th spot in the East.

 

[The Iceman]

48 points and a not good enough draft pick.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

depends if we get luongo 33 if not 26 it also depends on if we only play eastern teams

 

[Shimso]

Probably around 20 wins.

 

[Kessely Snipes]

29 wins.

 

[Willchel Marlynder]

People are actually willing to take luongo's horrible contract? Unless we pay next to nothing for him I say no thanks. I'll take a top 3 pick instead

 

[LeafsNation75]

I'm going to guess between 25 wins as a low number and 30 wins as a high number.

 

[Warden of the North]

High-25

Low-17

+3 if Lu is here.

 

[HeroNtF]

Considering we are still going to be learning Carlyles system that will take effect and we will be off to a slow start, so I'd say first 20 games we will be around the 8-10-2 (11-7-2) mark. Once we get comfortable in the more defensive system we will start to steal close scoring games, and come out with around 15-12-3 (18-9-3).

With Riemer my guess is 23 wins and around 5 OT points
(With Luongo 29 wins and 5 OT points)

I heard also that their would be 7 games per division rivals, if so I can see a healthy handing of loses added on from Boston... a bloody factor which could hurt our seasons record not only from them, but the mental damage they seem to do to us every time we meet.

the better question is what are the number of points needed to make the playoffs. and going on that it takes 92 points in an 82 game season thats 53.8 points so we need 23-25 wins depending on the OT/SL to make the playoffs.

 

[Morbo]

With the current roster? Maybe 20, if no key players get injured.

 

[robr00]

Last year the Leafs won 35 games. The roster hasn't changed much, so I'm predicting they'll finish off the year with similar results.

Assuming the season is 50 games, they'll win between 20-22 games, finishing in the bottom 10 overall.

They failed to get a legit #1 Center and a legit #1 goalie.

I'll go with a slightly lower points percentage than last year, given that zero problems have been addressed over the offseason, besides a "treating the symptoms, not the cause" in signing McClement. This team is not a markedly better team than last year's edition. Look forward to drafting a top prospect this June.

 

[FlareKnight]

I'll go for something incredibly ambitious....like 15.

I think Carlyle is addressing, the biggest problem.

 

[SwissLeaf]

25-28 wins

Im thinking 15
