4 games left, and the most likely playoff opponents are (in order of most to least likely) Anaheim, Edmonton, Chicago, and San Jose. San Jose is obviously the most desired opponent due to their recent level of play, but also the least likely scenario. Anaheim doesn't have a regulation loss in their last 10 games, Edmonton has one, and Chicago also only has one.
It'll be interesting to see if any players are rested over these final games. While the playoffs are clinched, the seeding is still very much up in the air. Which leads me to believe the Flames will ice their best possible lineup the rest of the season.
