The playoff line is set right now at 78 points. The Texas Stars have 54 coming into a week where they will play four games of their remaining twenty in just six days, starting tonight in the makeup against Toronto. The math works out to Texas needing 24 points, 12-8 record to make it into the postseason.
We’ve gotten close enough to the end here that we can take the time to break down the remaining schedule week-by-week. If the Stars make the postseason, it’s going to be by the skin of their teeth. Take a look...
Week of March 2
(TOR, MIL, @SAN, MIL)
4 point week (4 total)
This is a rough stretch.
