I still think it is going to come down to the increased number of road games in January & March. We are not as good on the road as we are at home this season and we have a pile of road games between now and the trade deadline.
The team does not really need to have anything change to drop in the standings... we just need to have more road games than home games and the Flames will win less games.
Losing two games in a row at home definitely tilts the conversation toward the "top-10 draft" side of the equation. If we keep our road record of winning about 41% of the possible points and start losing more home games... then dropping in the standings is certain.
