I think they will beat Vancouver. Van plays the night before against LA and will be beat up. San Jose and Red Wings they have a chance. I will say 3-5 with an outside chance at 4-4.
The problem is I doubt they start selling off players immediatly after the game on the 15th. After that they play Columbus twice, Oilers twice and could go .500 on the rest of the teams. That is probably all the false hope that the owners need not to blow it up.
April schedule with 9 on the road in 15 games will be the death of the flames.
