The New Division

Actually his calculation was based on math.

At a more realistic SV%, the Sens will need to make-up ~40-50 goals -- and that's still taking into the Sens getting good, top 1/3rd goaltending.

The calculation was pulled straight out of his ass and failed to take into account the effect that having a healthy Spezza, Karlsson and Ryan will have on all other members of the team as they play with the stars and see lesser competition when the oppositions best players are focussed on stopping Spezza and Co.
 
I guess you don't remember him being booed out of town.

You're telling us something that we already know.

We more than any other group of fans are absolutely aware of the fact that the Cretans in the rest of the fanbase, and the sports media in this city for that matter, are absolutely incapable of properly evaluating defencemen.

We've always known this fact.

What will the Leafs effect of having a healthy Reimer (who missed an entire month last year), a full year of their PPG winger Lupul, and a full year of Gardiner?

Or do Sens injuries only count?

Nope, he took into account their standard rates of production and included it accordingly.

Plus MacArthur, Zibanejad, Pageau, Michalek, Conacher (> Kadri).

Lots of guys that could put up 20 or more.

I don't think goals for is going to be an issue for us, provided that we have a relatively healthy season.

Oh, I'm aware.
