I did rank the Flames D in the bottom half of the div, but its not terrible.
Good Faceoff and back checking Centermen can make a D look better then they are. Van has had that for years.
The biggest issue with the Flames D the past 2 seasons has been overall toughness and support from the Center position. I think the first issue has been addressed to a extent, and hopefully Breen can steel Butlers spot and all but eliminate that issue. The second problem is the reason I ranked the D 5th, but the team 7th. Man for Man Van & Calgary are dressing about the 5th best D in the division. And Edmonton is the worst D in the Division.
And I did put Anaheim so low on LW to spite Perry. The Canadian teams are all have legit 1st line LWs and are vary strong on lines 2,3,4. Ana has no depth.
