Nashville had a horrible time with injuries last year. I believe for the last 4-5 games, they had to have 3-4 AHL players come up and play for the big club and once the game was over race back to play AHL hockey. Rinne is a top notch goalie and i see him being back to his old self next year. As someone else mentioned their D and Goalie situation is way better than the flames. I don't think they will make the playoffs, but they will be ahead of the flames.
Out of the central and pacific divisions i see the flames last and i don't think it will be close. The teams that Calgary will be fighting with in the overall standings are in the east.
