BOSTON — The prognostications for the Pacific Division were way off last season, thanks largely to the Golden Knights’ surprising success.
So far, the predictions haven’t been much better this time around.
The division appears wide open with two unexpected teams atop the standings. The Knights entered play Sunday four points out of last place and four points out of third.
“I think it’s fortunate for us right now that it is (wide open),” defenseman Colin Miller said. “We know that we haven’t been playing our best and we really need to turn it around if we want to do something this year.
