A simple question. If the Flames were in the eastern conference, would they make the playoffs?

As it stands right now, their 32 points would put them 4 points out of the 8th and final spot. That is after playing a large portion of their games against the top teams in the west. A couple easier games against the bottom teams in the east could theoretically put us in the mix.

They are playing a hard working, grinding style of hockey that may frustrate some of the more free-wheeling teams. They have also been getting contributions up and down the line up. They are certainly missing a few game breakers, but the Coyotes have done more with less.

Thoughts?
