This got me thinking. What did our snake look like last year? Introducing: THE GREEN SNAKE! If you'll notice, the green snake was above the red snake for the first 8 games of the season. If you remember the green snake also wound up fourth worst in the entire NHL. It was a dark spot for Calgary fans. That said, at not one point is the green snake ever below the hideous blue snake. Not once. They do touch after game 17, but the blue snake is never above the green snake and that was Calgary's worst season in its last nine years (lockouts not included). Can the blue snake pass the green snake? Unlikely, given that Calgary won games 51-55 last year and after 52 games Edmonton is six points ahead. Edmonton would have to win their next 9 games in a row to get ahead of the green snake.
The red snake is 18 points up on the green snake after 52 games.
