3 teams are tied at 1 point behind us and 2 teams are 2 points behind us. If we do not win tonight there is a good chance all 5 teams can step over us. The Red Wings are only 3 points behind us and on a 6 game winning streak, they may not even notice flying past us on their way to rejoining the east playoff race.
I am still super interested in our double Blues road games next week. The Blues play the Blue Jackets tonight and then get a rest before they play us on Tuesday and Thursday. On the other hand, our team will be flying in from playing in Chicago on Monday. It is almost like a mini-playoff series with big implications for the season.

How about the Flames win, get in a playoff spot, and keep it!
