Flames have to go about 15-9-2 the rest of the way to make the playoffs. That would be roughly a .620 winning percentage or about a 101 point pace the rest of the year. They are quickly approaching their standard "If we win 2 out of every 3 games for the rest of the year we will make the playoffs" time of year. Only having 11 home games left and 15 road games will make that task even tougher. Maybe go 8-2-1 at home and 7-7-1 on the road.
Pretty good game though, they definitely competed overall. Too bad for Gio, having all 3 forwards blow the zone because we could give a crap about playing defense really made him look bad. He should have just iced it, it was his only play.
