Typically you can only have 30 regulation losses or fewer in order to make the playoffs.
There are 73 games remaining and the Flames have already used up 7 of them.
That means that they have to get points in 50 of the remaining games (some will be OTL)
That means they will have to have one hell of a November/December to get back into the conversation.
The most likely scenario and it is becoming more of a certainty with each additional loss is that the Flames will miss the playoffs. Not very good.
