cleowin Posted February 2, 2011 Author Share Posted February 2, 2011 Actually, it'd be the same as Detroit so 30-1-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Bob Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 That magic number of 30 really doesn't look that far out of reach. Canucks and wings both going ~ 20-10 will give it to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cleowin Posted February 2, 2011 Author Share Posted February 2, 2011 I don't see how that makes sense - I'm not claiming that I can calculate the magic # or anything, but just look at the no. of games played. Detroit has had two fewer games than us. So if Detroit goes 30-1-0 in their next 31 games, they'd have 2 more games after that and they can't go 0-0-0 over that span.

Bieksa's Quote Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I meant like Vancouver needs to go 30-1-0 against Detroit in their next 31 games to win the Presidents trophy: same number to clinch 1st in the west officially. DET has a higher M# than Philadelphia. DET = 30.0 PHI = 29.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesTW Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Actually considering that they have 4 Shootout wins, that automatically means that Dallas needs to have 4 wins higher than Vancouver's to beat them out. The reason behind that is because of the new shootout rules. It essentially works the same as a OT/SO Loss. Dallas has 48 Points with 44 Games remaining (thats 88 Points). Assume Dallas finishes the season 66-12-4 and Vancouver finishes the season 65-11-6. Because Dallas has 4 Shootout wins, it'd be saying that dallas has a record of 62-12-8 while Vancouver has a record of 64-11-7. you see the difference? So for every Shootout win TEAM B has, I take off 0.5 points, but for every shootout win vancouver has, I add 0.5 Points. As well I consider 0.0 still active in the race. As soon as the magic number hits -0.5, then they become eliminated. It works the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
