True, but blown points in December vs SJ, Anaheim, Kings and others, before GG got read the riot act and pulled his theatrics, along with lost points post break pre all star game vs teams like the Sabres, and of course the 6 points lost to the Oilers, are all going to come back and haunt this team...the problem with all of those is that they dominated many of the above games but were mentally weak and found a way to lose after having leads that were smaller than they should be.
Realistically, with this team playing no better than they are, just finishing out games and scoring that goal on the pp to go up by 2 or 3 rather than letting teams stay in games, they could easily have 10 more points themselves, along with avoiding the pure handing of extra 1 or even 2 points to the above mentioned Sharks Ducks and Kings in some of those games.
