29th position where the Flams sit now drops top 3 odds to under 20%.

Vancouver will draft top 3 baring a miracle win streak and the next last team will draft top 4 with very high top 3 odds.
Yeah, I was incorrect on that.

But the Flames are still in a tie for 2nd last place. They are just ranked where they are because of tiebreakers. And they are only there because of a hot streak powered by new guys who will likely regress.
