Boston Bruins 78.3
Columbus Blue Jackets 84.8
Pittsburgh Penguins 84.9
Los Angeles Kings 85.6
Anaheim Ducks 85.8
Tampa Bay Lightning 88.2
San Jose Sharks 89.3
Chicago Blackhawks 89.5
Montreal Canadiens 89.7
Colorado Avalanche 89.8
Nashville Predators 90.2
Winnipeg Jets 90.2
Florida Panthers 90.3
Arizona Coyotes 90.6
Toronto Maple Leafs 90.7
Dallas Stars 90.7
New York Rangers 91.2
St. Louis Blues 91.4
Vegas Golden Knights 91.4
Minnesota Wild 91.6
Calgary Flames 92.4
Carolina Hurricanes 92.9

Washington Capitals 93.1
Buffalo Sabres 93.6
Ottawa Senators 94.4
Vancouver Canucks 96.2
Philadelphia Flyers 96.5
Detroit Red Wings 98.3
New Jersey Devils 99.3
New York Islanders 99.4
Edmonton Oilers 102.5

**Statistics disclaimer, a team playing 5 really good teams and 5 really bad teams could have the same "average quality of opposition" as a team playing 10 mediocre teams.
Let me know when Carolina goes to china...goes west for two games, goes east for two games and then goes back west for two games and then back again.

Flames have probably put on more miles already than Carolina will before Christmas.
