Default What percentage would you put on the Flames making the post season?

Watching what I'm watching, with the firing of our Jack Adams winning coach and the team's worst start to a season (and there have been many). I'd be interested in hearing what percentage Flames Fans put on the Flames making the playoffs with only 6 games played.

I put it at 10%, based on a huge disagreement (between me and management) with how good or bad some player or coaches are at some positions. (I'm also including the win streak in April to take us back a few positions at the draft)

Again 10%, see you in April.

I'm going to give them another five games or so before committing an answer to this type of question. with coaching changes you never know. They could get it like a light bulb switching and all of a sudden put together a win streak and be right in the playoff mix in November.

It's not looking great right now, though.

0%....season is lost. Too hard to make ground, especially with a weak team to begin with.

30% according to sports club stats. Not sure I'd go that high but still really early in the season. Everyone thought Anaheim would be in the mix for a top five pick last year in November.

Flames need 91 points in the final 76 games which is 15 games over .500

Already very unlikely. I'd say 22.1%

29.7% @ SportsClubStats. Dropping like a lead weight though.

This would be a great question to pose to the players, coaching staff and management.

We'll see come American thanksgiving. If we don't go on a run here and end up in a playoff spot by then...well, the numbers speak for themselves.

20 game mark you can probably make a good assumption.

I like the Ameriacan thanksgiving test. If you aren't in the playoffs then only 2 teams total swap. I don't believe that our odds at the post season are that significantly different then at the start of the season.
