How does this years Flames line-up differ that drastically than the oilers in 2009?
Iginla and Cammalleri are the only Flames forwards to actual get 30 goals in a year. Yet there is no room to play Jones, Begin Comeau and jackman.

Well I agree that you need a 4th line that can add grit and energy, but I think msot people are saying 3 scoring lines, not 4, which I have no problem with at all.
