Gonna be tough test. 7 of them are at home. Think we need to win 6/10 on this to stay in playoff hunt.

As long as they stay over .500 when it’s over, I’ll be happy. It’s a tough stretch.

 

[SnuggaRUDE]

very tough stretch. Even the 'easy' games are huge. They'll need much better puck possession, getting +1 GSAA per game by their goalie isn't going to happen.

On the plus side they've generally played to the level of their competition this year.

 

[Chainshot]

5-4-1? 4-5-1?

 

[jc17]

3-5-2

 

[Dirty Dog]

6-4 or 5-4-1.

I’ll take that and like it

It all depends on how many times they can score more goals than the team they are playing that night.

If they do that a lot, the next 10 games can go quite well for them.

 

[SnuggaRUDE]

3-5-2

Sadly where I'm at too

Nah. Only the bottom and top 2/3 teams in the East seem to be separating themselves from the pack, and that's only slightly. Even if we go....say.....3-5-2, we're quite unlikely to lose contact with the playoff pack.

Might we be outside of the top 8 after this stretch? Sure.

But I can't picture a scenario where we're out of the hunt altogether after this 10 game stretch.

 

[MOGlLNY]

Come out of these next 3 with 4 points and take it from there.

 

[Zman5778]

The two games that we "must" win in this 10 game stretch are against the Isles and the Red Wings. Win those 2 (preferably in regulation), find a way to get some points against the Western teams and we'll be just fine.

 

[Sabre the Win]

Wild home Win
Canucks home OTL
Islanders away Loss
Avalanche home Loss
Jets home Loss
Utah home Win
Red wings home Win
Rangers home Win
Caps away Loss
Leaf’s away Win

5-4-1

The Islanders can ice a team of 60 year olds and still find ways to beat the Sabres, so sick of losing to that organisation, I'm numb to it and just assume we are gonna lose.

I hate to be a statwatcher, but need to see more than one line not getting dominated in high danger chances, and there are some tough teams on there.

Assume team is healthy...

Wild W

NYI W (2nd of b2b for both)
AVS/Jets W/L

Was W
Leafs L (2nd of b2b both)
Mon W

I say they can fo 13× pts at 6-3-1

 

[TheMistyStranger]

Either 7-2-1 or 2-7-1.

 

[dire wolf]

That's a really tough stretch. I'd be very happy for them to go .500. I have no idea what they will do. Could literally be anything.

 

[Beerz]

0-10

So in other words, you're saying those games are guaranteed losses?
