Let's not kid ourselves. The reason why the Flames are in 28th place is because they have over achieved.
The Flames started the season with 8 natural LW. 7 of the top 8 D left handed. No proven goalie. No top end talent at center (or no depth either). And an average height/weight smaller than the local junior team.
Actually, it's almost impressive how bad of a team that the Flames are able to ice while still making the cap floor.
I'm really impressed with their winning percentage.
