Hardest strength of schedule vs. one of the easiest
Flames lost Gaudreau in a separate scenario and were forced to trade Tkachuk based on geography
How exactly are the Panthers getting better down the road with no picks? They were the top team in the league. Panthers are missing Weegar big time.
I know points points points points are all that matters
