Well, the Thrashers finished -2 last year. Right now the Jets are what, +4? I don't think they've necessarily improved a whole lot, the East has just gotten a lot worse. Last year, the 8 seed Rangers finished with 93 points, or +11. This year, it's looking like +7-+8 will be good enough for the 8-seed, 89 or 90 points.
