Therefore, I see both games as losses (in OT vs. L.A.; in a SO vs. Winnipeg), with L.A. beating S.J. in regulation. This will see Calgary and L.A. finish the season tied at 97 points with Calgary granted 8th spot (2nd wildcard) due to a narrow tie-breaker victory. (I believe I have this correct).

The Flames can finish second in the Pacific, third in the Pacific, or ninth. The Flames cannot finish in either wild card spot.
