Season's over, wasn't good at least we started moving out the old and trying some youth. Lets rate their seasons.

Forwards

Cammalleri - 44gp, 13g, 32p, -15. He was up and down early in the year but really showed some leadership with all the younger guys coming up. Point totals are there. Grade: B- 13/14 Status -> Trade

Stampniak - 47gp, 9g, 32p, +2. Played really well at home and disappeared on the road, showed good chemistry with whoever he was put with. Good secondary player. Grade: B 13/14 Status -> Keep

Tanguay - 40gp, 11g, 27p, -13. Good start to the year but tailed off in the end. Tried after the deadline but just not the player he used to be. Grade: C 13/14 Status -> Trade/Buyout

Hudler - 42gp, 10g, 27p, -13. Showed some flashes, hockey smarts and the system he came from. Good secondary piece. Grade: B- 13/14 Status -> Keep

Glencross - 40gp, 15g, 26p, -8. Inconsistent, like Stampniak he wasn't visible on the road. Had some really good games at home, especially that hattrick game with a sore wrist. Grade: B- 13/14 Status -> Trade if he agrees

Stajan - 43gp, 5g, 23p, +7. If all our other players played as hard as he did we would be a playoff team. I hope other teams see that and try to acquire him, he's a good piece for a winning team. Grade: B+ 13/14 Status -> Trade

Cervenka - 39gp, 9g, 17p -13. Needs to work on his defensive game if he wants to play in this league, but quite impressed with his points total with limited ice-time. Grade: C+ - 13/14 Status -> Keep

Backlund - 32gp, 8g, 16p, -6. Elevated his game when given the ice-time. One of the bright spots down the stretch. Just needs more consistency and he'll be a top 6 forward here for a long time. Grade: B+ 13/14 Status -> Keep

Baertschi - 20gp, 3g, 10p, Even. His struggles at the beginning of the year are well documented but he came back as a different player. He's going to be good. Grade: B+ 13/14 Status -> Keep

Begin - 36gp, 4g, 8p, -2. Couldn't have expected anything more from Begin. Grade: A 13/14 Status -> Keep

Horak - 20gp, 2g, 7p, -5. Needs to get stronger, overall hes shown he can play in this league. Grade: B 13/14 Status -> Keep

Jackman - 42gp, 1g, 5p, -9. Wasn't impressed by him this year. Grade: C 13/14 Status -> Trade

McGratton - 19gp, 3g, 3p, 04. Provided enforcement and chipped in couple goals. The salute will be one of the highlights of this season. Grade: A 13/14 Status -> Keep

Rest of the forwards are incomplete.

Defensemen

Wideman - 46gp, 6g, 22p, -9. Really improved the PP but is not very good defensively. Kind of expected season from him. Grade: B- 13/14 Status -> Keep

Giordano - 47gp, 4g, 15p, -7. Struggled early in the year but played well when the pressure was off. Should not be played as a top pair, good 2nd pair dman. Grade: C+ 13/14 Status -> Keep

Brodie - 47gp, 2g, 14p, -9. His age and experienced showed early in the year with some glaring mistakes but he's been able to clean them up. Played well down the stretch now time to see if he can do it over a full year against top lines. Grade: B+ 13/14 Status -> Keep

Butler - 44gp, 1g, 8p, -10. Not impressed at all, almost every time he was on the ice something bad almost happened or did happen. Grade: C- 13/14 Status -> Trade/Walk

Sarich - 28gp, 0g, 2p, -8. Body is too beat up. I think Sarich should look at early retirement this summer like his buddy Rhett did. Grade: C 13/14 Status -> Retire

Smith - 22gp, 0g, 1p, -5. He showed why he shouldn't be a top 6 dman. Grade: C- 13/14 Status -> Trade/Waive

Goalies

Mikka - 3.44gaa, .882sv%, 8 wins. Not a good year at all. Lets see if he retires but one of the greatest Flames ever. Grade: D 13/14 Status -> Retire

MacDonald - 2.87gaa, 0.902sv%, 8 wins. Decent backup. Grade: B 13/14 Status -> Keep

Irving/Taylor - AHLers, waive or don't re-sign.
