Dubious? As I read the thread it seemed to be headed in the direct of a lot of threads. Spitballing seemed to be progressing to genuine "if" and on the way to "when". It was that was with the bulk of the trade speculation threads. I just think it's best to temper expectations otherwise we'll have a full scale grump-fest when we end up right about where we are now. I merely wanted to point out some teams below us are unlikely to win many of their remaining games. Tampa is the best bet to match our 42 points and I think they jump ahead due to more wins?
Plan for about 7th and then be happy if we end up lower and let the fapping go crazy if we end up lucking out.
Moving on, I'm with Azzarish, I'm jones ing for Monahan. I think he's that 70ish point captain material center we could really use. He won't challenge for the scoring title but I think he's in that Toews mold.
