Okay so hear me out - if the Flames beat Winnipeg in their one remaining match (big if) then as of today we're only 2 points out of the 8th and final playoff. This is not out of reach at all.

It's not going to be easy but considering how many games they've outplayed their opponents and lost (like tonight) and also being one of the worst teams in NHL history after regulation, it's impressive they still have a genuine shot at it.

I would say it basically will come down to whether the Flames or Jets can beat more teams below them in the standings. Seattle also might plummet further to make things interesting.
