It's been a bit of an odd year with Ebbs and Flows. At one point the Pacific was terrible, than it came back, now it's terrible again. The Flames, Sharks, and Knights were 2-3-5 in the League Standings at one point too. But it does seem to be settling to a point where the Flames and Sharks are battling for top spot, and Vegas is more or less in Cruise Control for 20 games knowing that they'll be in the playoffs as the 3rd place Pacific team.

Even teams like Minnesota and Colorado who fell so far back to the point where they let Chicago back into the race now have woken up and won a couple games to put them back in the dust.

For entertainment sake...the Flames could finish the season 0-21-0, and the Oilers could go 13-8-1, and the Flames would still be ahead of the Oilers in the standings. Oh Yes Mark Spector....Edmonton did a great job of holding that edge on Calgary for all of 6 months...3 of them being the 2017 off season.
