There are eight teams within 6 points of each other (including the Flames) so the standings are going to change on a weekly basis as by next week the Flames could easily be 12th in the conference.
I know filling the worst case scenario card is your thing(for reasons unknown), but even with the flames on a bye week, im curious how you think the flames could be in 12th by next week? I don't think it's mathematically possible even with worst case scenario out of town scoreboards between now and next Saturday.
