For the rest of the season they play 14 games against teams above .500 and 7 games against teams below .500.
Of those 14 games against teams above .500. - two are against the best team in the NHL. Two are against the second best team in the NHL. Two are against the 9th best team in the NHL. 20 percent of their remaining games are against two teams that win a combined 64 percent of their games.
Even their ####ty teams are decent half the time including Nashville, Arizona, and Columbus. Of their remaining 21 games they have 4 easy games (detroit, New Jersey, Anaheim and San Jose). The other 17 are pretty tough matchups.

Well then it's a good thing they always play like #### against the ####ty teams it seems here lately. Chicago, LA and that one San Jose game. They always seem to show up against the better teams. That's what has been frustrating lately.
