These past few games have been rough no doubt.

But last year at the All-Star break the Flames were 21-24-3. Good for 45 points in 48 games (or a 46.87% win ratio).

This year at the All-Star break they're 25-24-3. Good for 53 points in 52 games (or a 50.96% win ratio).

That's an improvement. Furthermore, we're still currently in a playoff spot. It's no guarantee we'll make the playoffs, but it's still a legitimate possibility.

I'm certainly not ready to write this team off yet and proclaim that they're going no where.
they are definitely improved.

It's not.imposdible but it is not likely to happen. Points percentage at this point looks like a huge obstacle and 50+ games into a season pretty much tells you what kind of team it is. 3-6 extra points likely only means 2-4 spots in the standings.
