Wasn't trying to start an argument, just asking you a question on a discussion board. The context of the discussion was confidence in the Flames' chances to make the play-offs. I like their odds, didn't see the need for "certainty".

As for the bet being foolish, yes, there are better ways to make money.

Feels good to be ahead of the Oilers with even games played. 7-9-1 since the all star break

The Oilers moved nine points ahead of the Flames in the standings and will not be caught by their rivals this season.

Calgary’s a wild card team at best now, while the Oilers are well in contention for the Pacific Division lead.
It’s a big change in Alberta, and it won’t be changing back soon.

Don't give them too much credit, there's a first overall draft pick up for grabs.

Now he's being all nonchalant and reserved.

Come a long ways from the Oilers having passed the Flames in both the "micro and macro" senses.

Maybe he'll take a few step down from mount Oilers, and a few small steps forward as a columnist.

Talbot is gonna gas out, playing so much this year. That would be my biggest fear if I was a fan of the greasers.
