Doesn't matter who is in net. You can't win anything meaningful in the NHL without top end center depth. Arguing everything is an exercise in futility. You can't win without top end center depth.

Having elite goaltending and terrible center depth is where the Flames were last year. Getting bad/average goaltending and having terrible depth at center is where we are this year.

The difference in results? Negligible. There is absolutely no point to anything this team does outside of getting a solid foundation of very good centers. Everything else is obtainable after the fact. Get high end center depth, or continue to be absolutely irrelevant in the NHL standings.
