Here we are on April 6th and the Flames are at 93 points in 79 games. The red snake is 0.512 points ahead of the black snake. Unfortunately that crappy blue snake way below only has 59 points. Somehow the Oilers are 6 points behind their last year's putrid pace where they ended up 3rd worst, only one point behind 2nd worst. Why is this unfortunate, you ask? Well the Oilers have been gifting points to everybody meaning 96 might not be enough. Heck, Darren Haynes tweeted the Flames could hit 98 points and not make it if things go completely wrong.
But I say no! Bunk created this thread to show that 96 points will be enough. My username has 96 in it. No team has missed the playoffs with 96 or more points. The Flames will not be that team. Tomorrow night a win puts them at 95 points with the final two games against LA and Winnipeg. The Flames control their own destiny. Let's watch them seize it.
I know it's asking a lot, but I wouldn't mind seeing the blue snake veer sharply uphill for the next three games.
