Six weeks?

And teams have to play 25, 26 games in six weeks?

Like four a week for six weeks.

It's going to be so fast and furious, the game's knocked off.

But what's going to be fascinating is that

Will teams be able to get an accurate read on where they are headed in the next 10 days?

Right.

The deadline's next Friday, four or five games before that deadline.

And teams got to make their trades and make their decisions starting over again.

Like if you struggle out of the gate and you're Buffalo, you're like, oh, gosh, we need something.

Or you're like, oh, no, we're just we're just warming up again.

I think that's not going to be an easy decision to make.

for 25 games for one of those teams 500 like there's literally one team in the east that's lower than 500 right so you're like okay terrible they play 500 so they get the equivalent of 30 points because let's say 25 games they have a five point bulge you gotta get 30 points minimum to catch someone who does terribly right

You got to go 15 and 10, 16 and nine.

That's like six 40 hockey.

That's a, that's a massive surge for a third of the season.

Like five doesn't sound like a crunch time.

They start doing the numbers.

Yeah.

If the team goes 10 and if a team goes 10 and 15, sure.
