It’s been a strange year… MoneyPuck loves our team
NYR has a 3.7% to win the cup this year, according to their model, despite having a less than 50% chance to make the playoffs. They, more or less, have the same Cup odds as teams firmly in playoff spots, like Tampa, Toronto, and LA.
Also, teams with a similar amount of points in the East have horrible odds, comparatively speaking. PIT, CBJ, and MTL only have a sliver remaining on the wheel
This is all to say, MoneyPuck thinks the NYR are far better than their record, and I have to agree. This offense has looked far better with JT, especially on the forecheck. Once we send Lindgren to Karakalpakstan, we’ll be in good shape, and I think we’ll make the dance.
What happens after that is anyone’s guess.
