This team is incredible, and their progress in the last two seasons has been incredible, but in their last 20, they've been under .500, and I think this reflects the rest of the league finally catching up and playing at the Flames speed.
It will be interesting to see if the flames have another gear and can get faster themselves, but they aren't passing as well or making decisions as quickly either.
I'd say they have a good chance of being between .470 and .520, which probably puts them at 9-10, and one hell of a season. Looking forward to seeing the second half! If they can sustain the speed and energy levels, and if goaltending stays sharp, they'll have a good chance because the coaching staff and D have shown they have the ability to adjust... I could be pleasantly surprised come playoffs.
