Ever since the lockout the Flames have generally always played well at the beginning of the season, at least after October. Pattern always went stumble out of the gate in October, get really hot in November and December to put themselves in a playoff position, have an average January after the holidays, the completely fall off the rails in February and March. This group showed they know how to play in those last two months last season, if they can repeat that after such a strong start then they'll be golden
