Not every team, but in order to be in the top 16, the Flames need to play at a rate that typically a top 10 team would have to play at. And they would have to sustain that for 76 more games. It's one thing to be an elite team that starts off badly and then recovers, but the Flames were likely a bubble team to begin with.

They would basically need to go from horrible to elite immediately.
