We would need help from the division leaders. Have they gotten their stuff together as well? If the top 4 or 6 teams in the West are doing well and beating those below them and not giving up freebie points (to anyone other than us  ) then our chances improve.
The Sports Club Stats site is a good one. The author in the blog Pete mentioned had the CBJ at 7.8%, for the record that is up from nearly dead in water a couple of weeks ago.

That site is pretty eye opening. The Rangers have the same amount of points as us yet still have almost a 50% chance to make the play-offs.
Everyone here has been pretty realistic about our chances. Sure, in other threads we have discussed a lot of what-ifs, but we all pretty much see the writing on the wall with the upcoming road schedule.
The consensus has been to enjoy this run while it lasts.
