They would be below us in the standings, which would put them ahead of us in the Draft.

So 1 point or a loss and we pick 4th, a win against the CaSucks and we pick 5th. Should be a fun night.

They are below us if we win. Which means they're higher in draft order.

Thanks Isles!! Nice finish to your season!! Maybe giving up this years first looks better now.
No, if the Flames win at all we'd be picking 5th (or 1st if we win the lottery... which ain't happening).

Any Flames loss - pick 4th

Perhaps we can pull our goalie in the first period.

I understand that. But, we were also tied with them this morning at 77 points and we were ranked 4th last in the standings. Hence why I am confused.

I think it is okay to cheer for a loss tonight. Too bad it has to be against the nucks.

I don't know if the hockey God's have anything left in the tank for us, but I will be offering them a sacrifice by consuming several cold beers.

Please. We need this.

Is it too late to bribe the bus driver to "accidentally" take the Flames to Abbotsford?

I kid... still hoping for a Flames win but will not be disappointed in a loss

No! They need him for Johnny and Bill. Stick Butler in net.

That means you looked at bad standings. The official NHL standings had the Flames ahead of the Islanders going into today's action.

Ok. Any kind of win would have them in 5th. Should have known that. Too excited there. Thanks all.
