They sure did. They will be out in 4 though. That's not a very good team.

I disagree with that. Wolf is quite frankly the only reason Flames games have been relevant for the past month. If it wasn't for him, then it would've exposed just how awful the makeup of the team is since they're statistically one of the worst offensively.
 
They got heart and effort for sure, but the lack of talent wouldn't have generated wins. I would be incline to agree with your point if their offensive stats were better. In that sense the importance of Wolf would be weighted less.

The Wild, like Winnipeg in 2023, are a waste of a playoff berth. 
 
Flames beat both and were the better team down the stretch in both instances.

Who else deserved Playoff hockey?
 
Weegar absolutely.
 
Who else?
 
Kadri and Huberdeau and great years, but still couldn't carry the offense to the level necessary.
