How many "series" can the Nucks win before Apr 6? Canucks lose series 1 - 4


xereau

Recommended Posts

How many best of 7 series can the Canucks win, or lose during the '18-'19 season?


Can they win 4 in a row?  3?  They have won 2 (see below)


Current series record sits at 4 series wins, 5 series losses.

 


This is by no means scientific, or does it mean anything, other than it being kind of an interesting way to break up a season.

It can serve as an indicator for how the team is doing.  More relevant than last 10, at least.

Teams that win stanley cups generally have seasons where they win the majority of their 7 game in season series

 

there has to be a stretch of 4 series that a team wins in order to be a stanley cup contender, thats my way of viewing it

I predict Pettersson and Horvat are going to will the team into the playoffs. Benning will notice the run they’re on right now and make a trade to give them the extra boost they need to get in. With Hughes coming on in March I’ll say we’ll go on a 22-8-2 run to get in. That’ll give us a 45-28-8 record which would give us 98 points on the year.

Hughes could be one of the boosts they need.

You know who else put it this way? Hartley.

Hartley had the Flames playing seven games series all year when they beat us in the first round. Was it 2014-2015?

If it wasn't for that I would totally get on board this way of thinking.  As it stands it kind of leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

 

Lousy Hartley.  Lousy Torts.

I really don’t like our schedule in February so many games in the month I’m hoping we can use some guys from the farm to help keep us healthy.

Hoping for a 8-6 month, no big losing streaks please. 14 games in 28 days!  Just get through it.

The Hughes effect is going to be super interesting.  that kid has game breaking skill.

We are basically on par for games played, so I am not sure that the 14 in 28 in Feb is really much different than other teams - the schedule condenses after the All Star and bye breaks...
That said, there are no stretches of schedule/opponents which look terrible....a lot of winnable games on the list. Likely an unexpected rough patch ahead, but the team should remain competitive for a playoff spot well into March...at least

Lousy Hartley.  Lousy Torts.

Darryl Sutter was a big proponent of this as well, probably kept the regular season more interesting for the players too.

The Canucks were and have always been great.

Tear that thing down Mr Gorbachev.

 

Let the Russians in. 

Don't pay attention to this Mr Tryamkin - you're welcome back any time.

It's also an entirely different animal obviously.

Random regular season games are against the mean (ie median) opponent in the end, and are random sets of matchups.

 

If this team makes the playoffs, it's likely facing a Winnipeg, Calgary, or Nashville in the first round....

That said though, bring on Las Vegas or SJ or whomever - it would be really fun to upset them - or a Nashville or Calgary in the first round.....and great experience regardless.

 

And failing that, rent Mr Edler to Winnipeg....would love to see a Cup for them - and him.  He could bring that back with him July 1st and add it to the swag the hound-dog already brings...

Sure would be a nice secret weapon to introduce late in the season. Other teams haven't played against him yet, aren't familiar with his tendencies, and I think he'll make some heads spin with his effortless skating.

 

There are some players I wouldn't mind being traded (for picks or even a young top 6 winger to upgrade on Bo's wing)

 

I feel much better with Demko as the backup, over Nilsson. Canucks have been getting great goaltending over the last 2 months, which has put them in the playoff conversation.

I don't have much to contribute to the topic, but just wanted to give a shout out to @xereau for doing the legwork to present the discussion as he has, since I've always found the "7 game series" approach to the regular season interesting, especially considering how many teams have openly used this same approach over the years, and particularly (it seems, to me at least) teams that are legitimately trying to contend for the cup. is there something to approaching the season this way, or is it just another motivational tool?
