Hockey Numbers
Based on the expected offense from the tables presented in the other posts, this would be the expected standings. There seems to be a lot of volatility in the east, but the west appears to be business as usual (changes smaller than 10 are not really that significant)

I think it’s worth saying I’m not very satisfied with the results, but I like the method. There are a few things I still need to work out, especially in terms of Crosby and Ovechkin’s offense. I also need to look at Tampa a little bit closer ( they are expected to score 300 GF - a little bit unrealistic).
