And they're also ahead of EVERY other rebuilding team right now in P%. Ahead in the standings with fewer games played even. 10 spots ahead of CHI who keeps getting nentioned in comparison. 6 ahead of forever rebuild Buffalo.

Not sure how anyone can say our rebuild is behind. Ups and downs. That's how it goes.

Today we stand at 21st. over all. 4 pts. from a wild card. If the season ended today, would you consider that a success?
No, it translates to 83 points, a solid 15 points out of a for sure playoff spot, no that isn't a success.

Splitting hairs a bit, but doesnt it project to 85pts? Edit: 84.952 actually. I guess 84 is the number. Don't think it makes sense to round up in this case. 164 possible points, .518 P%


Edit:

The question was "if the season ended today." Today we're 4 points out of a playoff spot. Not 15.

Playoffs or bust.. should be in the locker room wall!

Not we want to be playing meaningful games. What the f*** does that even mean. BA next move will be at the end of each game everyone gets a participation sticker.

I have been enjoying how we been playing and how the team is coming together. I want Keller to be in his prime when we are making our playoff runs. Just really want use to trade for a top 4 Dman. BA to have some faith with the team we have now not what's down the road!!

BA should say our Core is Keller, Smaltzy, Cooley, Gunner and Serg. We are going to make this team a winner. And each year we will be able to add 1 or 2 guys to keep us competitive and strong. I will do everything I can to make "this" team a champion.

Who/what do we trade now for a top 4 D and who is available to acquire? I don't disagree that we need to make a big moves on D still. I'm just not so sure when I think it should be done.

Edit: I just dont want to spend big on short term. I want a long term fit top 4 Dman brought in if m giving up future assets. He needs to still be here and productive 2 seasons from now for what I want.

We have long term top 4 D and don't need to trade for more.

Sergachev - Marino
Simashev - Durzi

Kesselring and Lamoureux will be considered for Marino's replacement when that time comes.

It's easy to forget that 3 of those 4 players have not been able to help the team this season.

It's just an excuse to some fans but the impact it has doesn't care. If it didn't matter I don't think we'd be talking about bringing in help on D. Especially in the top 4.

Edit: So pleased with the Sergachev trade. Imagine not having him.
