The Central Division - ok, most of the Central Division - is a difficult division. Yes, the Avalanche are running away with it right now, but the rest of the playoff spot are within three points of each other. The teams below the top four in the division, while closer to being seen in the rear-view mirror than anything else, are still a vicious challenge.
Except for Arizona. They have their own vicious challenges to deal with right now, like finding an arena whose max capacity isn’t 5000.
The Winnipeg Jets are in 6th place with 41 points, and are on a six game (0-4-2) losing streak, getting outscored 10-4 in their last two losses to Florida and Vancouver.
