I wouldn't call it a must win, but definitely the biggest game of the year so far.

A few interesting things from sports club stats

We have a 47% chance of getting a division seed and only 8% chance of a wildcard, so really we are battling with LA, the Ducks and maybe SJ for the division spots with the wild card not really a factor.

Goiing into the game, we're a toss up with LA 56.1 for us vs 59 for them.

Win in regulation, it goes to Flames 63 vs Kings 51.
Lose in regulation, it goes to Flames 47 vs Kings 68.
