That division is actually not looking as tough as it once was.. Anaheim should be trending down after epic collapse and fluke season, Van is getting older and trending down, SJ older and trending down.. Flames young and crappy but trending up.. Rather be there than some of the other teams.

The D is still going to be fairly weak, and goaltending is a huge question mark.
I would say that it would be borderline miraculous if we finished 9th, especially when you consider our division: LA, Ana and to a lesser extent, SJ and Van are all teams that the current Flames have trouble with.
If we are not 29th or 30th, I'll be shocked.
