11.3% - They are all-in on the flop and need runner-runner to win.

Kings have the same % to win the cup as the Pens.

This must be before Saturday.

Flames only have 5 games remaining, not 6.

If you take the Flyers for example, it says they have 10 games remaining yet the best they can do is 116 points instead of 120 points if that were true.

Must be some sort of typo?

That Hockey-Reference site is very good though IPW, as you say, it is chock-full of hockey info and historical stuff.

I don't know how they created the Stanley Cup numbers, but that's pretty pointless. And Boston hasn't clinched a playoff berth yet? Neither has Philly clinched a #1 seed.

Ok I meant to say almost :L
In that case the have a better chance than the Red Wings
7.1 vs 7.0

Clearly these chances are merely based on current points in the standings, and nothing else.

They ran 1000 computer generated seasons based on some stats they don't explain. Not saying I believe these numbers, just thought it was funny that the Kings have better numbers than the Wings to win the cup.
I am guessing that the Kings having winning records against the Wings and Nucks (until the 31st at least) helped their numbers in the post season.

Here is a description of each of the columns:

* W, L, OL, and PTS are the average number of wins, losses, overtime losses, and points, respectively, that the team had in the 1000 simulations.
* Current is the team's curent point total.
* Remain is the team's projected point total the remainder of the season.
* Best is the team's best point total in the 1000 iterations.
* Worst is the team's worst point total in the 1000 iterations.
* Playoffs is the percentage of times the team made the playoffs in the 1000 iterations.
* Division is the percentage of times the team won their division in the 1000 iterations.
* Top Seed is the percentage of times the team was the top seed in their conference in the 1000 iterations.
* Win Conf is the percentage of times the team won the conference playoffs in the 1000 iterations.
* Win Cup is the percentage of times the team won the Stanley Cup in the 1000 iterations.

Yeah, it was interesting to see some of the categories and information they have on the site.
