If they were being led to their winning ways by a bunch late twenty/early thirty something AHL journeymen, then maybe it would be irrelevant.
However, 3 of their top 5 scorers are rookies, and 8 of their top 11 scorers are either rookies, or second year NA pros......plus their goalie, and two of their D-men are rookies as well (three rookie D-men when Sieloff comes back). I sure hope the Flames brass doesn't consider that irrelevant.
