A quick look at some of the PDO stats say that number is higher on the road than at home. I'd agree that the Flames have an unsustainable road record. They are not going to be 11-12 games over .500 on the road for the year, and that is what their current record translates too. The good news though, is that we are playing a more sustainable game at home, and have only been outshot on one home victory (31-30 vs Nashville), and lost a game against Montreal we were badly outshot.

Considering we've played 3 less home games than road games, we can take a pretty big correction on the road record to get closer to an expected .500 record and still make the playoffs if we can keep up our more sustainable home play.
