One of SJ, LA, or STL is going to drop or move up a few spots in the next month. LA has 10 games at home for the remainder of March, which I would assume they win 6 of them.
Problem there is, LA plays PHX 3 times, which leaves the potential for either team to advance 6 points. It's also possible each game goes 3 points and 9 are up for grabs (PHX gets 6, LA gets 3 or vice versa)
The best chance the Flames have right now is for the Blues to hit a losing streak. St. Louis is the only team of PHX, LA, SJ (within 4 points) that does not play either of that mix 3 times during March.
The Flames must get 4 points vs. Columbus this month as well to have a shot, imo. They need help from Anaheim, who could potentially block 10 points from the Sharks & Blues.
