That being said, given that our teams' maximum potential points are only 1 off of each other, and we play both teams again before the season is over, they technically still control their own destiny if they are able to win in regulation against us in both games. Chances are both games at the end of the season won't come down to this, but there's certainly a possibility.

I have the magic number at 5 for for the Kings and 4.5 to the jets.
Both The Kings and the jets can get to exactly 100points if they win out. If the Flames win 5 games they would have 101.
Essentially if the finished 4-0-1 and the Kings and jets won out (not possible because the flames play both teams once) there would be a 3-way tie at 100points. Currently the jets have 32 ROW, and the Flames have 38, so a 3-way tie gets the flames in.
