Is 96 Points Enough? Red Wings Playoff Math at the Olympic Break
The NHL is on Olympic break — and the Detroit Red Wings are sitting third in the Atlantic Division.
But what does that actually mean?
According to Max Bultman’s latest mailbag, the Eastern Conference cut line may land closer to 99 points this year — not the 91–92 we’ve seen recently. That makes the simple “.500 hockey gets you in” narrative a little too comfortable.
In this episode of Red Wings Rant, we break down:
• Why Columbus is the real threat right now
• The importance of staying in the divisional seed vs falling to wild card
• Ideal playoff matchups (Montreal? Buffalo?)
• Nightmare scenarios (Tampa or Carolina)
• Whether Yzerman actually adds at the deadline this year
• John Gibson’s extension debate
• And why MLB is suddenly broadcasting the Detroit Red Wings after the FanDuel Sports bankruptcy
The league is frozen. The trade market is paused. But the playoff math is very real.
Detroit controls its destiny — for now.
