The Flames are 4 points out of the 8 spot with 2 games in hand. That's not where we'd like to be, but it's not "almost mathematically impossible" for us to make the playoffs.

I have seen enough of this kind of rationalizing. Fans of this team have been doing this for years now.. Last year the flames hung around the playoff hunt and they were in 8'th seed for ONE DAY.
It's so tiring hearing "oh we are only this far out of 8th..". Other teams are solidifying themselves a playoff spot while the flames are spinning their wheels trying to figure out we they can't win games. It's just depressing to hear "8th spot" .
It's death by low expectations.
