The only thing is that 20 games into an NHL season is like 40 games into a baseball season or 4 games into a football season. Several teams have started out 25-15 in Baseball only to fade off in the last 120 games, or 3-1 in football only to go 8-8 or 9-7 type of thing. It's really not even worth noting except that the team had been so awful for so long, and usually becuase they had started so poorly. That team started well and than the real team showed up for the next 65 games.
