That is what I would have thought is a pretty good record.

Yet the odds of the Red Wings making the playoffs is about 15%.

Get the odds of the Red Wings making the playoffs is about 15%.

This is a little weird.



Both Carolina and Detroit have winning and pretty similar records.

Yet Carolina is given a 95% chance of making the playoffs as opposed to Detroit to 15% chance.

What am I missing?

What am I missing?

What teams are between them in the standings?

Tampa Bay, Pittsburgh, New York, and also the other New York.


That?s it.

So how does that account for the literal 80% discrepancy between the chances of the two making the playoffs?

Something seems off.

Duh.

Here?s how.

This is some real egghead shit.

Has nothing to do with standing or outcomes heretofore.

Simply based on some algorithm/computer projection of shit that hasn?t happened.

The same kind of shit that was projecting Ohio State would beat Michigan 90% probability each of last two seasons.

I would conjecture that statistically ZERO of these eggheads ever delivered nor received a hard check in a single hockey game ever, nor ever made a tackle or was tackled in a football game.

Here we go.

Based only on the standings from Dec. 5 a few days ago - the Wings would be in.

 

[Mitchrapp]

It should be based on the fact Carolina had 116 points last season.

Why?

Do they carry over?

 

[Mitchrapp]

Why?

Do they carry over?

Yes, they do.

 

[tinselwolverine]

Yes, they do.

Last year?s points carry over?

Well, that doesn?t seem fair.

Carolina on a pace to get to 109 points.

Red Wings on a pace to get to 97 points (up from 74).

97 points made/would have made the post season in both conferences last season.

Sadly sitting at 32points the wings are 1 point out Of the playoffs right now. Tied with Washington and 2 points ahead of the team that crushed them Florida. It?s frustrating with all those bad teams we never really received a top pick.

 

[biggunsbob]

This team has zero luck with block shots. How many hands are going to get hit for Detroit ?
Hope Larkin is ok. He left after taking a slap shot off his hand.

 

[biggunsbob]

10:32 left red wings have trouble just getting shots on goal in the third. Have trouble getting any pressure on this goalie.

What am I missing?

We can?t beat good teams very often and finished 25 plus points out Of the playoffs last season.
Other then that I am not sure. Plus the lottery always fucked Detroit.

These ain't exactly the Horse-Latitude days of Ned Harkness, Johnny Wilson, Bobby Kromm, Wayne Maxner, Billy Dea, Ted Garvin, Doug Barkley, usw ... thankfully, but this team presently ain't performing too good. #analysis

100 in the Wings conference.
