Based on your theory, the Stars are a better team than the Flames because they have won the matchup between them.
How the Pacific has played against the rest of the league is a much more accurate way to determine the strength of that division than using a smaller sample size.

We are comparing 1 division vs another. Thus I think it is fair to look at the record head to head, which isn't a small sample size (its 150 games +) not a 3 game season series.
Either way I think you are missing my point. The central may be indeed better than the pacific or vice versa. There a statistics you could pull (that aren't a small sample sizes) to fit your argument. Thats why I think its subjective.
