I'm a Leafs fan through and through but there's no way we're going 16-1-1 to end the season, not with the defence the team currently has.

After LA saw how the Blues played like a team who believes they are a playoff team, their confidence is shattered. I could see LA going into a big tailspin after that loss.

Looking at the current standing and comparing them to your final standings. There is definitely something wrong with your model.

DET still gets 83 games to make the playoffs. Very generous.

Rangers get 26 pts in last 17 games
Bruins & Avs get 26 pts in 15 games
Toronto gets 32 pts in 18 games
Van will only get 16 pts in the last 15 games, barely over 500!
We seem to be rooting for a select few teams in the east with no idea what the rest of the league is doing.
This is not a forecast, it's wishful thinking.

5-9 Ek. If you "predict" an OT loss and they lose in regulation its a wrong pic. One of the gambling sites you promote wouldn't accept it as correct and nor should you call it correct.

I don't think Ek is rooting for anyone. He has developed a complex model based on like 14 factors that correctly predicts winners like 60% of the time. If he has Vancouver playing .500 hockey and Boston finishing without any regulation losses then he's obviously seeing some factors others are missing!

How much faith can you put in a system that predicts 2 teams will play 83 games? You would think they would at least want to be accurate on predictions that have a guaranteed outcome 😂

As a Blues fan I don’t see them winning points in16 games and LA still sinking. I wish that the Blues will be in the playoffs but the Kings will pull their heads out of their rectum when they play the bottom feeders.

Actually, I think Ek is a protege of the great sports betting legend Billy Walters. His 1.0 website is cover for a sophisticated betting operation using arbitrage and value betting.

As a blues fan I would love for them to get into the playoffs. They are not bad enough to get a top ten pick. Playoffs would only help the young kids on the team. Blues have too many inconsistencies in their game. They always get outshot and pp is lacking. It has turned around a bit since the coaching change but also has regressed. Binner can’t do everything himself. Though he certainly tries to sometimes. Blues were saved against the kings by Binner and a lucky bounce. The first goal. I love my team but damn. They are not going anywhere in the playoffs if they make it

Have you looked at how many games Boston has gone into overtime? Of course they get those points.

Vegas is 23 - 24 and 6 since opening 11-0-1

The love for this team is baffling. They have not just played bad for a handful of games, they have been a mess since Thanksgiving.

Now they are going to flick a switch?

no sh17!!!

He has them going 14-1-1 and they're a such a mediocre team...and NOW they've lost to CGY so 14-0-1. Yeah, sure.
I think they're more likely to go winless in 15 rather than lossless, but let's say they'll go something like 9-5-1, which won't be enough.

and they deserve it!

And that team is so old as well. Their blue line peaked last year. They have guys running on fumes.

But by all means..NHL Media...fawn all over the Knights.

Them missing the playoffs would be hilarious.
