The party will be coming to an end very soon though, I suspect.
So far, they have played ARI twice, BUF, COL, and DET (yes, they have beaten STL and CHI as well).
They have spent exactly 1 night on the road this season, and it was the first night of the season. Tonight is the first night they will spend on the road since Oct 6th.
Not only have they been at home all year, but they have also played the fewest games, meaning they have had the most practice time of any team in the league. In October, for a new team, that is invaluable.
Now, they are on the road for 6, and 8 of 9. After tonight, they have NYR, BOS, OTT, TOR and MTL.
I would bet that they are on the outside of the playoff picture by the end of November.
(great story though, and sorry to be a Debbie Downer)
