Wpg, SJ, Pit, SJ, LA, Van, Bos, Min, Ana, NYR, NJ, and NYI. If they can be 12 games above .500 before this stretch and play .500 hockey in Feb than I think we'll make the playoffs.

Injuries to any key players (Hiller, Gio, T.J. , Johnny Hockey) make this projection next to impossible. Having stated all this the best answer I can give is... wait a second I need to change the batteries in my magic 8-ball.

Pretty close with my answer. If Gio only misses a couple of games it's a coin flip to get in.
