If I am not mistaken the Flames were in a playoff spot the entire year of 2022 and have dropped out over the past couple of months. They also did not take advantage of this strength of schedule that most people making the predictions thought they would recover from and move forward. Since the Pelletier comments the team has won 8 of 21 games.
