I don't argue that the PDO stat is valid, or even his conclusion that the Flames numbers are likely to regress. With 19 games in the books, it is fair to say that we stole a few points (Chicago being the obvious example) which would skew the PDO. In particular, Hillers numbers were bound to drop.

However, over the last 10 games or so, it seems to me that we "deservedly" won the games we won and lost when we should have lost. Has the PDO been at a more normal rate? If so, doesn't that mean our recent win rate (6-3-1) is sustainable? I think it is possible.
