Being as impartial as possible, if I had to pick the teams that miss the playoffs from the west, they would be EDM, ARI, DAL, COL, SJ, and the Flames. Vancouver and Winnipeg would have to really fall off and I don't see either Minnesota or LA missing. It'll be a dog fight right through March, but the Flames need to string a bunch of wins together pronto.
