Alright fellas, straight to the point. How many points out of a top 5 pick?

Despite the incredible run the team went on...they are only at .500 and are potentially 1 loss combined with other team wins, of falling back down to an 8th overall pick.
East is TOIT like a tiger for the 'in the mix' teams.

I just want to be sellers at the deadline... after that let the chips fall where they may...

Honestly, I'm generally super anti-tank but I think the Jekell & Hyde routine they showed in this past half-season has made things very fuzzy. There is no right answer, we just have to see how the next however-many games plays out. It's a good thing, in a way... this is "in the mix". HuGo are in line with their own expectations at least. But yeah I would want to sell at the deadline, I don't think any of these UFAs are necessary and irreplaceable parts of the future winning team and whoever is called up or replaces the outgoing players will get a nice preview of NHL hockey (and the team gets to preview their NHL quality). Beck for instance, or Engstrom.

Alright fellas, straight to the point. How many points out of a top 5 pick?

We are +9pts over bottom4. We have 48 and Buffalo has 39, both teams played 45 games. We are 19th in the league by pt% with 0.533. There are so many conference and division games coming up that it'll basically define for us the playoff and wildcard standings. Exciting times to be a Habs fan either way.

I find the goal differential usually starts averaging out correlation with position over course of season.
Damn Bolts whats going on?

The Habs are 3 loses away from being back into the top 5 draft position

Can you say turn it on when you need to?
The Bolts have learned the lesson coast as much as you can as long as you can before the stretch run.
We however have to give every drop of blood every game to get wins.
