Say what you will about the talent gap between the Central and Pacific divisions, but the Pacific Division is finally starting to look at least respectable in terms of points of each team. A lot of teams have been heating up over the last week, and that’s reflected in the rankings.
The Flames are hot. 4 straight wins and 17 points out of a possible 20 in their last ten games. Calgary has five players currently scoring a point per game pace, and are getting some solid goaltending from Mike Smith, arguably the only thing that was missing earlier in the year.
