Unmasking the NHL’s Deceptive .500 Teams: Who’s Faking Success This Weekend?
Bonus five: The NHL’s fakest fake .500 teams
5. Columbus Blue Jackets – A classic example, as they’ve won 13 games and lost 16 but the league says they’re over .550.
4. Ottawa Senators/Toronto Maple Leafs – It feels like we’ve spent the last month talking about how the Leafs are a mess and the Senators are the only good Canadian team, so it’s mildly surprising to see them sporting identical records. Both teams are 13-11-4, which means both teams are comfortably over .500 and it’s fake.
3. Los Angeles Kings – They looked great against the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday, but at 13-8-7 that still means they’re a .589 team that’s lost two more than they’ve won.
