Yay secondary scoring! Can we have more like that PLZ K THX? Oh, and I know it's just "Darth" Gerber in goal, but could we reduce the number of defensive turnovers a bit?
Anyways.
So today's check finds the Futility Meter sitting at -13, 2-7-1. But look, there's a whole laundry list of low bars we can't get over:
- Atlanta bags a win, dropping us to 14th in the East. This is only good from the perspective that we are no longer five points back of the next team in the east (formerly Toronto).
- We still share the worst last-10 numbers with the Islanders.
- We are last in the Northeast Division.
- The entire Western Conference is ahead of us overall.
However we're still four points ahead of the Islanders, so we'd have to see a collapse of mythic proportions in order to come dead (and I mean dead) last overall... but I have faith, I know that this team can deliver.
Please, someone make the hurting stop.
