The good news for the Flames is that while we're not nearly as bad as some of those east teams, we should end up below them in the standings since we have to play in the West. Probably 8 of the top 10 teams in the league are in our conference so its going to remain very tough to generate points through the course of the year. So when you think of it that way, we're at an advantage compared to the Eastern non-playoff teams and will get a better pick than we probably should!
