In order to be below a .475 (78 points) and picking top 10 the Flames could only get 52 points in the remaining 62 games which is a .416 points percentage the rest of the way.
That's very unlikely IMO
Might as well cheer for the playoffs now because picking 11-16 and giving Montreal that pick is worst case scenario and way more likely than a bottom 10 pick right now.

As long as they're not a deadline buyer, which I can't see them being, I'm all for them making the dance.

I am LOVING Zary, Coronato, and Wolf.
Also nice to see Sharky get off the snide.

I feel like there's untapped potential in the group with Sharangovich, Kuzmenko, and Zary all still warming up (at least as far as the scoreboard is concerned).

The pretty much schooled the Rangers.
Thought they were a big dog.
Looked more like cats.

This team is playing way above what I expected from this season. Goaltending is solid and the defence has been surprisingly good. Need more offence but I suspect that will pick up as the season goes on.
In Conroy I trust,

It's just good to know they can win exciting games as well as boring ones.

Both Zary and Coronato have elite shots. Both are great puck handlers too, in particular Zary.

20 games in 25 points. Amazing but it had a lot to do with the hot start.i don’t think we maintain that pace.
I’d say we aren’t a 100 point home ice contender team, but we are a “fight for wildcard and surprise people in playoffs” team.

I hate the effing Rangers. Like they are a hair above the Oilers in my books. Fox watching Zary roof that winner was absolutely beautiful. Eff you Rangers...get out of here and beat the Oilers in regulation on Saturday.

Yeah their schedule to date has been on the tougher side and they have one of the easier SoS left in the West.

ha! she's the best!

This happens every ####ing year.
It’s a flow chart
Is our defence awesome on paper?
Then we suck.
If answer is no, we excel in that part.

Really like Jon Abbot, seems like he hasn’t missed a beat with Ball leaving. Really thought I would miss Ball more. Great hire
Oh btw . I’m not sure if anyone else has picked up o. This but Wolf is playing ok

Bahl reminds of Sarich.
Nothing to add about Wolf. Might be a top 3 goalie.
