I think it's funny that some people/this poster are actually surprised that this team can score goals, and has some depth this season. All you had to do was look at the team on paper for 2013.

Iginla
Tanguay
Cammalleri
Glencross
Hudler
Cervenka
Backlund
Baertschi
Stempniak

Wideman added to the D

That top 9 didn't do it for you coming in? Combined with the new offensive-branded coach.

How does that look in any way incapable of scoring goals? Lmao. Not to mention the addition of a previous 10 goal / 44 point Dennis Wideman.

All I know I'm not too surprised, you can look back and see some of the (at the time) ridiculous looking totals I predicted for some of these guys. What's funny is they're actually spot on pace with a lot of those predictions now. And still waiting for #12 to evolve into the beast he usually is..

What did concern me was the defensive side of the team.

Because it is the Flames I think some people didn't give half these players the benefit of the doubt in terms of their offensive capabilities. Turns out Calgary isn't always where offense goes to die.
