Technically speaking, no team has yet to drop past the Flames. If the Flames can manage to not acquire any more points for the rest of the season then we will be drafting third or better (lotto depending of course).
As long as the Canes and Preds win as many games as we do in their remaining games in the season we can keep our #3 draft spot. I definitely think the Canes have a couple of winnable games coming up.
The Preds are going to need to beat the Flames or both of the Red Wings and BJs (because I do not think they will be beating the Hawks on Friday). Unfortunately I can see them falling past the Flames because of this but you never know how their terrible offense will match up against our terrible defense...
