When you do these rankings the important thing is to look at the Flames relative to their competition. Who will be worse than the Flames next year? Phoenix? Nashville? Edmonton?
Edmonton looks to have improved but it's always "we'll see" with them.
Phoenix is still young so they could emerge or they could flounder.
Nashville looks like the only team that's as bad as the Flames.
So there you have it, bottom four in the west is basically a given unless everything comes up Millhouse.
Oh and by the way, Treliving has basically been saying that since he started. That the rebuild will take time.
