I think something that is easy for people to overlook is the upward trajectory of this team.
Shots for the first 5 flames games: 124-flames 188-opponents (40% of shots)
Shots for the last 9 flames games: 254-flames 233-opponents (52% of shots)
I think the Flames are only going to keep improving the way they did last year. I don't think they're a shoo-in for a playoff spot, but I think they're putting themselves in a position where they can realistically get lucky.
