And LA is on life support at 4.1%. Winnipeg comatose at 0.2%.

Winnipeg will be done by the weekend. The way LA is playing I doubt they make it to the end of the month. They are getting to the territory where they will have a better chance winning a top 3 pick than making the playoffs.

No worries with the loss against the Preds, the Flames playoff chances are still at 97.3%

Magic number is still 5 with 8 games left.

LA needs to pick up 7 points if they win their game in hand. They play us twice so they could get that down to 3.

Not a good time for this speed bump to turn into a slump. Especially with our schedule compared to LA's. We play LA, SJ and ANA twice each. This could be a lot more interesting than we would like.

Need to win on Saturday.

Very little chance we miss (but you never know until there's an X) but it's pretty important to finish above 8th and avoid the first round match up with Chicago.

We're 2-3-0 since the last win of the streak.

If you extrapolate that over the remaining games that would be something like 3-4-1 or 3-5-0 (which is actually realistic since we play Colorado and and should be able to win at least two extra game at minimum) which still gives us 96-98% chance of playoffs according to sportsclubstats.

So as long as LA doesn't figure they're sh*t out we should be good.

Prior to them losing to Edmonton, I would have said if a team could figure it out, it would be them. That stretch they looked so bad, but there is still a few games. We just need to find ways to keep winning to put the nail in the coffin.

I totally agree with you. I just hope a big 5-2 win doesn't give them life.

Going back to mid January, Johnson has a .856 save percentage in the 8 games he has played in, with 3 quality outings in 7 starts.
I prefer they keeping starting Elliott until there is an x beside Flames in the standings.

I think he's playing his way out of the backup job for next season. If he can't put up above average numbers when he only gets 1 start every week or two, then he won't be here. Considering these Flames have been a top 7 team for 75% of the season to date (38-19-3 since game #17), the expectations are going to be high heading into next season. No more dicking around.

Looking forward to the 6-game California home & home series!

The Flames could play as many as the next 20 games against California teams, depending on seeding and 1st round results.

Remember when everyone wanted to sign him long-term after that great run? This is why average fans are not running hockey teams.
