If you use December 18th as the starting point, you'll come to a different conclusion. The Flames have 17 of 22 points in the last 11 games if goaltending holds up in the last 2 games.

Well Dino picked some other timelines and the Flames are mediocre in those timelines as well, picking up points on some teams and losing points to some teams. There is no timeline where they are consistently picking up points on 80 percent of the teams they are competing with. I just picked a date that was roughly a month out where there was a snapshot of the standings on that date. Happy to have others look at Dec 7th or November 27th or any random date. Fact is they were a bubble team a month ago and are the same now, because they are not gaining enough ground.
I suspect by Feb 15th we will be in the “have to win 2 out of 3” games category that Brent Sutter perfected to make the playoffs.
