I like the positivity, but the OP's prediction is based on all the other teams sucking as much -- if not more -- than we have/will. Considering we're officially last in the NHL right now (albeit with games in hand), that's a pretty tall order.

I'd be more optimistic if the Flames could string together 3-4 straight wins in regulation -- our current win streak makes for exciting hockey but we can't come back from every game from multiple goals down and/or in the final minute with the goalie pulled.

Also, people keep saying that the Pacific sucks -- part of that is because one of the better projected teams (i.e. us) is last in the league in several key categories. Once they start getting heavy into divisional games, SOMEBODY has to win...
