Stars win = flames 89 pts, Stars 86 pts

Get ready for a wild ride.
Flames win = 91 pts
Kings lose = 88 pts

Playoff chances look great

Nah they can't make it. The question is the Kings, not the Stars. If scores hold up,

VAN - 93 pts 6 gr
CGY - 91 pts 5 gr
WPG - 90 pts 6 gr
LAK - 88 pts 6 gr

How about we wait a day or two until then can actually hand out a suspension before totally overreacting?

Or..... A St Louis team who is slumping, taking a clobbering from the Divers and losing 2 in a row at home and 6 of 7

Yup and in reality it's a 3.5 point lead.

I was taking a shot at a poster here that sees it that way.

Outside of Gio, I honestly don't think we have a single player that has had a bigger impact this year. Stopping scoring chances is as important as creating them. And Russell has been a total stud.

Eggs AND Ferland. Bugger deserves death twice.

EDIT: Or 2 goals for Monahan. I would take that trade instead hockey Gods and consider it forgiveness.

Which will likely be the case this year as well, as Forsberg is going to hit 60 asa well

Still fuming about the Monahan hit. Garbage call by the ref that was a blatant intent to injure.

Our Flames team is so calm that when they go to sleep at night, sheep count them

Which wasn't my point. I know you're our stats guy for everything stats, but I was stating Dallas would be seeing this as their last chance and it would be a really tough third because of that.

EDIT: Oh wait you were responding to the guy above you.

If that had been Crosby, Ritchie would've been ejected immediately. Just my opinion man
