And there is always a few teams that get off to hot starts/slow starts lock out or not.
The OP was comparing the first 10 games for the past 3 seasons, not entire seasons but fine, San Jose was a poor example. However, you can't tell me that you think Chicago being 10-0-2 is normal or just a hot start?

All I'm saying is the late start has caused some odd records though it seems it's starting to balance itself out.
