I really don't see what's there to complain about. IMO "Flames have been mediocre most of the season and are now on a hot streak" is 100% accurate. It's also completely fair to point out the obvious about our division being on the weak side this season.

They're not saying we're going to be easy pickings in the playoffs, or that we somehow don't deserve to make it. This team isn't likely to be a consistent powerhouse at this point, so the recent record is obviously a hot streak. For once we've been a bit lucky, no shame in that.

We're a good team going hot at the right time. With luck we can ride that far into the playoffs. Here's hoping.
