What's The Points?
I’m sorry for that ghastly title, a horrible attempt at a pun. No this isn’t some depressed rant. This is just a simple numbers game: How many points are the Senators players on pace for.
So we all know that the Sens as a team are on pace for a record of 76-6-0.
But, I thought I’d go deeper, and find out what the Sens individual players are on pace for, stats-wise. Mainly because I was bored. And curious. But mostly bored.
Anyway, these “predictions”(for lack of a better word, I came up with these mathematically, but my vocabulary stinks) are assuming that each player will play the remaining 68 games(Other than Brian McGrattan, who I factored in probable healthy scratches). Obviously this won’t be the case, and because of this and other factors, I doubt that these numbers will truly match the real ones at seasons end. But I still had fun. Sad, isn’t it?
Anyway, here’s how it breaks down:
