We’re about a tenth of the way through the 2019-20 regular season in the National Hockey League, and there are some expected teams near the top of the standings, such as the Capitals and the Penguins at the top of the Metropolitan Division. However, one of the big stories in the league so far is the hot starts for the Edmonton Oilers and the Buffalo Sabres, who have skated out to a 7-1-1 start to lead the Atlantic Division with 15 points, six ahead of the favored Tampa Bay Lightning. The Colorado Avalanche have started out even hotter, with a 7-0-1 record — no losses in regulation. No team in the NHL has lost more games than the Dallas Stars (2-7-1), winners of just one game in regulation.
