Any cut off you use is arbitrary.
Since January 1 the Flames have 1 more loser point than the Oilers.
Since Nov. 15 they are a top 5 team in the NHL? (I Think, trying to remember from posts here)
Since the season started they are the 12th best team
They were a .500 team after 51 games and are now on a hot streak.
All these statements are true and can tell a different story.
