It's not misleading.
The league average is a .550 winning percentage. The Flames' competition has sported a .614 winning percentage. The Flames have played at a .523 pace. If we replace the competition's .614 with a .550, that means they would have earned 3 extra points so far.
Now, if we assume the Flames continue to play at the same level, and also assume that, for the whole season, the competition level would be .550, that means that the Flames would finish with 96 points.
I was simply replying to the post you made earlier about how many points they can expect to get back. You assumed 2 or 3, but you were wrong and I was showing the math.
