Amazing!

How is Calgary doing compared to the best season Calgary has ever had? How is Calgary doing compared to the best team in the NHL this season. Holy shat!
Both Calgary and Tampa have played 63 games this year. Tampa is ahead of Calgary by 13 points, as they hit the 100 point mark tonight. Tampa is on pace for 130 points. That would crush the 1988-89 Calgary team's record of 117 points in 80 games. That would fall 2 points shy of the 1976-77 Canadiens mark of 132 points in 80 games. It would beat the 129 points the 1977-78 Canadiens earned, but they also did that in 80 games. The 1995-96 Red Wings achieved 131 points in 82 games.
The blue snake is up on the purple snake by 8 points and 13 points on the blue snake.
