The quantity of road games certainly adds another degree of difficulty.

We started the year 3-1-1 on the road, and now lost 4 straight. I guess we can expect streaks and slumps. I could see us winning 4 out of next 5 roads games, because of who we are playing.

9 of our 13 road games are against the #7 to #14 seeds.

We play in Chicago twice. The first time, Hawks are playing night before against LA and there is possible chance of letdown on the BTB after a big game against another contender. 2nd game in Chicago is the last game of season, and Blackhawks may have nothing to play for with the playoffs set to begin.

I am not saying it would not be easy, but there is enough softness in that road schedule to suggest it is not as impossible as it might seem.
