Overall I think a decent weekend. Flames officially can not pass LA, which I don't think was a surprise. I think the interesting thing is that the Oilers still have not eliminated the Flames. It is more than likely to happen, but here we are with 9 days left in the regular season and the Flames can mathematically catch them. I think they mentioned that McDavid might come back some time this week. I wonder if there is a chance to rush it under the circumstances.
At the end of the day, the Wild are still the main target. Although if St. Louis decides to go 0-3 in their final 3 games, it would open up the door.
Need to take it one day at a time and tomorrow night I think we will get some more clarity with the Sharks playing the Wild and we have a game against the Ducks. A perfect storm of a Flames win and Wild loss in regulation would set up hell of a Friday night tilt when they play each other.
