Yes, but Flames have a head-to-head left with the Jets, so keeping them within reach of the Flames allows us to control our fate if the Kings keep winning. If Jets win, we probably only have one way to get in the playoffs, through the pacific. That means staying ahead of Kings, as we still need to get three more points than Canucks in last 9 games or somehow make up the ROWs in that time.
