Anything can happen in a 48 game regular season. Just look every year at the stantings at the 50 game mark and see how different they are at the 82 game mark. I don't think you can discount any team save maybe Columbus making the playoffs. Any team that comes out on fire in the first 20 games likely has punched a ticket into the playoffs as long as they maintain a .500 pace over the last 28 which isn't hard in today's NHL with all the loser points.
