But it's Minnesota, in OT.
And Flames will beat Vegas in OT so it’s not a RW needed to pass Stl tiebreaker.

Moneypuck has the Flames and Wild bumped up, Blues dropped.

Minny 92%
STL 89%
Flames 19%

Neither the Wild nor Blues looked all that impressive tonight...Loyd Chistmas would be pleased

Betting sites have the Flames +500 to make the playoffs (1 in 5) so checks out with that 19%

What worries me about Utah Vs Stl is not only the back to back for Utah but who’s gonna play in net for them.

Vejmelka has started 23 games in a row for them. Do they give him both of the back to back or just one? There must be a reason he’s started this many in a row. Their backup must be absolute trash but could totally see him getting last game of the season.

It looks like they now have a rookie backup who has only started one game in his career that was against the frauds (of course it was).

Not the best OOT scoreboard. Was looking promising for a while.

Flames are going to have to win out. Hopefully vagas and LA are resting players in those last 2 games.

Calagry was pretty much always going to have to win out. We really couldn't expect them to lose pretty much every game.

Wild
* The Wild get 0 points on Tuesday => can catch the Wild if we get 6 points in 3 games
* The Wild get 1/2 points on Tuesday => cannot catch the Wild

Blues
* The Blues get 0 points on Tuesday => can catch the Blues if we get 5 or 6 points in 3 games
* The Blues get 1 point on Tuesday => can catch the Blues if we get 6 points in 3 games
* The Blues get 2 points on Tuesday (by winning in OT/SO) => can catch the Blues if we get 6 points in 3 games (by winning all 3 games in regulation)
* The Blues get 2 points on Tuesday (by winning in regulation) => cannot catch the Blues (because they could only be tied in RW, and the Blues hold the ROW tie-breaker no matter what)

Givem HELL Flames .

Win em out

Hold your heads high

If you win you might be in but id rather you remember thr effort when it was needed .

Champions dont lose ....they learn lessons and this is how cultures change and winning pedigrees begin.

The young guys are watching . Now they know....We DONT QUIT under any circumstances.

The Athletic daily. Can the Flames please catch a god damn break at some point?

- The Flames are at 11% (-6%) to make playoffs.
- The Flames' median finish is 93 points (-), 3 points (-) out of the playoffs assuming the Blues - median finish of 95 points - hold the tie-breaker.
- The Flames are most likely to pick 16th overall (-).
- The Flames are projected to finish 11 points out of the top 10 (illustrative only as cannot finish top 10 at this point).

Well at least the 16th pick is a lot easier to give up to Montreal haha.
The OOT was looking good until the Canucks collapsed

Not sure I understand the last part. The blues and wild have the tie breakers?

It all comes down to Tuesday. We either have a shot or we don’t.

It would be something to have one the two teams drop the ball tuesday and be at the mercy of the Flames' last two results.
