Strength of Schedule

The Flyers are getting it done despite a difficult schedule, a real good sign. With the upcoming road trip many people are saying, now the Flyers are really going to be tested. As a matter of fact they have been getting tested throughout the season having the 8th most difficult schedule in the NHL and the 5th most difficult in the East. If the season were to end today 10 out of 18 games would have been played against playoff teams with 7 of them against teams leading their respective divisions, the Flyers are 4-3-0 in those games. The overall winning percentage of the Flyers opponents is 52% it is much higher if you take out the two games against the dreadful Hurricanes whose 28% winning percentage really drags down the average. Even more is impressive is the NJ Devils who have played the hardest schedule in the entire league. To note the hated Pens have had a cake walk of a schedule opponents winning percentage of 47% good for 28th in the league. Making matter worst the horrible Canes can't win games with the easiest schedule in the East opponents winning percentage of 45%.
