For me, being on Texas, I think one of the biggest narratives is whether or not our record is "for real" or not. We have the best points percentage in the league, however we undoubtedly play in a weaker conference-- which means we don't frequently have to test ourselves against the monstrosity that is the Great Lakes division. In fact I don't believe we've played Buffalo or Hamilton at all yet this season! We've played Chicago twice and they've (easily) bested us twice. We've played Toronto once and while we beat them fairly handily, that's not a large sample size.

We have an incredibly deep team that can score with all three lines, and that shows in our record. The scary part is that while it may translate to a President's Trophy and a league leading PTS%, it may still mean that we're bounced early by a powerhouse Great Lakes team that only came up short of us in the regular season because they had tougher competition on a regular basis. So while I'm confident in our team, our managers, our coaches, and our performance so far-- it nags at me that despite our success it could all come crashing down rather unceremoniously in the playoffs.
