It's definitely not going backwards. The Flames were bad last year and this group is basically the same aside from modest upgrades in net and Troy Brouwer, who is not going to amount to much more than a small piece.
The team will still likely finish ahead of last years group when all is said and done. Another solid draft and a few shrewd moves are still required to start getting over the hump.
