let's give it some time. Flames looked good in bursts last year too.
the record looks good, but the flames have looked below average for most of their games thus far, but some hot goaltending has kept them close in games they had little business being in. They are giving up way more shots and chances than they are able to generate offensively, and i don't think that's a pattern that will change drastically.
No way this team is bottom 3, but once injuries hit, the goaltending cools off a bit, i expect the flames to be in that 25th overall spot.
no way we'll be worse than carolina, buffalo, florida, and likely battling things out with winnipeg, edmonton, and a surpriser along the way like the yotes, heck maybe even the avs.
