I think they'll get better as the year moves forward. I don't think possession will catch up with them because I think their possession stats will start to improve. This team is still obviously outclassed some nights, but I think if the goaltending remains a strength the flames have a good chance to finish 7-10th in the west.
For that to happen they need to improve. They need to play 60 minutes. Our best forwards need to start putting up points and Gaudreau needs to emerge.
I think we'll look back on this first tenth of the season and be very grateful we ended up sneaking away with as many points as we did.
