Unmasking the NHL’s Deceptive .500 Teams: Who’s Faking Success This Weekend?
And … yeah, guilty, I suppose. It wasn’t unreasonable to think a team that was only barely fake .500 in mid-November wasn’t a real contender. But you could make the case they’ve been the league’s best team, non-Avalanche category, ever since then. They won nine of ten including six straight, a streak that finally ended on Friday in a shootout loss to the Ducks. They’ve been as high as second spot in goals differential, a position they share with the Stars after last night’s shutout win over Columbus.
