Using a variation of the Flames own opening night line up they could have easily went:

Gaudreau-Colborne-Byron
Baertschi-Backlund-Raymond
Glencross-Monahan-Hudler
Bollig-Stajan-Bouma
X-McGrattan-Jones

Beyond that the Flames had the entire off season to address the probability that they would have more then one LW prospect make this team.

Treliving mentioned more that once yesterday that he was surprised so many prospects were close to ready and that there was so much depth. I wonder if he would have made a different choice with Setoguchi in hindsight
