I always like to look at it in baseball terms - it simplifies the numbers and compensates for different numbers of games played. Currently, the Flames are:
2 games out of 4th - with 7 games remaining, head to head
2 1/2 games out of 3rd - with 4 games remaining
2 1/2 games out of 2nd - with 7 games remaining
to say they need to win all 4 games or their season is toast, is just silly.
All they need, in order to salvage the season and make the playoffs, is to start playing better (I don't believe that will happen though, unfortunately)
