QOTD: How will the Flames fare on this 5 game road trip?

Well since we cant beat the Oilers, this will probably be ugly. Luckily I've accepted this wont be a good year for us after we fell back to reality after the streak. Hopefully Johnny and Bennett can entertain.

I voted two points but they already got one. I should have went with 3. They might be able to take NJ, but that CAR/DAL back to back is ugly. And CBJ no matter the suckage can always come out and steal games. Add to that, Bobrovski is back and he'll have a game or two played to shake the rust off.

This team never traditionally plays well in Columbus. Five point seems generous.

I picked 3 pts. I just don't have a good feeling.

Really questionable to say that at this point. Even the wild card spot is now within reach. The Western Conference isn't what it was.

I think they need to win at least 3 of the remaining 4 games to give themselves a chance to get back into the mix. If they don't, they'll likely end the road trip in roughly the same spot they're in today.

I agree. But there will also be other opportunities after the all-star break to get back in the mix too.
