On other interesting tidbit. The Flames are on pace for 24 shorties this year, which would be 9th all time. the current nineth place team they would be displacing... is the 87-88 Flames. (the mid 1983-89 era Oilers hold 5 of the top 6 spots with only the 87-88 team missing). 8 of the top 10 took place in the 80s.
They would need 26 to tie the 1970-71 bruins for 5th all time. 36 would tie the 83-84 Oilers for first.
