The Flames need to maintain a .615 winning percentage the rest of the way to hit 54 points, which is what we'll need give or take just to hit 8th.

For reference, only the Blackhawks, Ducks, Canadiens, Penguins, and Bruins to this point in the season have out performed the .615 mark.

So, ask yourself this. Do you see this team realistically being able to perform at a clip similar to the top 5 teams in the entire NHL when we play these teams for 13 of the remaining 26 games.

Chicago X2
Nashville X3
Anaheim X1
Phoenix X1
Vancouver X2
Detroit X2
Los Angeles X2

Half our schedule is against teams that we don't tend to have that high of a winning percentage against.
