Nurse and Draisaitl didn't miss any games to injuries. They were in the minors and/or suspended.

core games missed for the Flames Brodie 12, Gaudreau 3, Monahan 1, Bennett 5 Gio 0 Hamilton 0 total 21 ... even if you moved Frolik 18, Backlund 0 and Wideman 31 to the core that is another 49 core games lost AND Wideman is part of the core.
Imagine where the Flames would have finished with 100 core games missed ... Gaudreau out for 37 games?

Calgary's only competent goalie missed 28 games due to injuries. Imagine where the Oilers would have finished.... ok, imagine how much worse the Oilers would have been with Talbot injured for 28 games.
