If 94 points is the rough entry point to the wildcard spot. The Flames will need 69 points over the next 61 games which is basically 34 wins and a shooutout/ot loss so a record of 34 26 1, Right now the Pacific Division leader is Vegas and they are on track for 110 points, which means the Flames would need something like 42 wins and an over time loss to over take them for the division or 42 -18 - 1.

Edmonton to reach 94 points would need about 38 wins over their next 60 games or roughly 38-22 or a .633 winning percentage, last year they ran at about a .628 winning percentage. So they're at the point where they need not only a big string of wins, but at the same time are going to need some help.
