True, but by the numbers Vancouver is right there. If they win tonight, two points back of Flames with a game in hand. I guess in that scenario neither team is in a playoff spot.
I was thinking of it another way, if you had the choice which do you pick:
A regulation loss tonight and Flames schedule rest of the way.
A regulation win but we inherit the Canucks schedule.
Assume equal number of games.
I guess I pick a loss and the Flames schedule. But it’s close. It’s a more interesting question if we were playing Edmonton.
