Okay.

And you look at the Eastern Conference, every team in the Eastern Conference has a winning record.

If everybody's winning, who's losing?

And then you look on the West side, I think there's four or five teams that maybe have losing records.

But everybody in the league, 85% of the league has winning records.

Yeah, you want all the teams in.

Every game matters.

I mean, you're not playing on the soft side of the puck in the midpoint of the season.

I mean, every point, every battle is important that will ultimately determine whether you make the playoffs or not.

And there are no games to throw away.

I think for the Rangers, they're going to have to figure out a way to go on a really hot streak to get themselves well over 500, get themselves in position, and then hang on to the rope.

It's not like they can't do it, but they haven't got on that run yet.

We're all waiting for it.

Yeah, it's really interesting.

Yeah, yeah, and who knows why.

And I think at the start of it, early in the season, I think you could chalk a little bit up to new systems.

Players weren't reacting.

They were thinking about where they should be on the ice, who's –

You know, it's an orchestrated chaos when you're on the ice in order to cover the ice as five-man units.

And if someone's out of position, it really leaves yourself vulnerable.
