Buried in the lede in my opinion in the pace stuff is the concept of pace. Probably poorly worded but let me elaborate.

They are on pace for 88 points. That is seen as essentially, the best case scenario. In theory, that means there's a lot of other outcomes that are worse, which should tell you all you need to know about how realistic this team's playoff chances actually are.

I don't think the Bruins will make it in, but just want to point out that hockey-reference's simulated projections have the Bruins best-case point total at *103. Their worst-case for the Bruins = 75.

* They also currently only give the Bruins a ~19% chance of making the playoffs.
