Early playoff picture

With the gulf of points in the Eastern Conference widening each day, teams like Buffalo, Florida, Ottawa and Toronto are going to have to string together some winning streaks and play some near perfect hockey down the stretch if there is going to be any hope of playing post-season hockey.

Currently, these teams all sit between 8-13 points behind the Montreal Canadiens for the eighth and final playoff spot in the East. In the West there’s a slightly tighter race for the final playoff spots, with seven teams in total all within three points of one another — all of them jockeying for the final four playoff spots.

If the first half of the season is any indication, it seems as though teams in both the East and the West will have to earn approximately 94 points in total if they hope to crack a spot in the bottom half of the playoff picture.

The past ten

As of Sunday, Jan. 9, no NHL team has been hotter in the past ten games than the Vancouver Canucks, who’ve gone 8-0-2, not once losing in regulation. In fact, it’s been more than a full month — 16 games total — since the Canucks were last beaten in regulation.

Both Detroit and Philadelphia have managed impressive streaks, each team earning seven victories in their past ten games. Surprisingly, of all the teams to go on hot streaks as of late, the New York Islanders have also secured seven wins in their last ten games — a far cry from the 14-game losing streak the Islanders endured earlier in the season.

Worst of any teams as of late have been the New Jersey Devils, who have earned just two wins in the past ten games, securing only four out of an available 20 points. Just ahead of the Devils, the Edmonton Oilers have gone 2-6-2 in their past ten, with six out of a possible 20 points.
