I know CP doesn't put any stock in Power Rankings, but these are updated as of Nov. 17th:
TSN: Calgary 10th (up from 16th)

Flames President Brian Burke doesn't believe that the club's early results are a fluke, because they've managed to build this positive record in the face of injuries while playing 11 of their first 17 games on the road, but if those possession stats don't get better, the Flames will need to ride percentages and that's been established as a risky proposition.
Key Injuries: LW Mason Raymond (upper body), C Joe Colborne (upper body), C Matt Stajan (knee), C Mikael Backlund (abdomen).

The surprising Flames get a chance to show once again if they're for real, hosting the Ducks and Blackhawks this week.
