That BUF OT win was pretty clutch. They are much better than they were in the first half the year I think. Lehner coming back helped but the team is maturing and looking like they may take more of a step forward next year. If O'Reilly gets back soon we may not be able to catch them. BUF pulls 4 points clear of us but we've got 2 games in hand so it's still quite close. BUF is 4-4-2 in their last 10 while the Flames are 2-6-2. Their offence is a bit deeper than ours at the moment. When I've watched them a lot is now flowing through Eichel, especially on the power play. They've got a great young core. I think CGY, BUF and FLA have three of the best young cores in the NHL. Much better balanced than EDM's.
