The Flames have 3 points on Dallas, who is currently 27th in the league standings. But Dallas has 2 games in hand. If the Flames revert back to the October/November team, they will most like be 27th in the league in a few weeks time and then sellers at the deadline. Once they part with pieces like Versteeg and Wideman and Elliot, I predict Murphy's Law will take place and the Flames go on a tear for meaningless points, earning themselves a lousy pick out of the top 5 this year. And then Treliving can point to the mid-season slump and slow start as areas to blame and keep Gulutzan into the next season.

Basically, Flames circa 2009-2012 all over again.
