I think the Flames need two good top 6 players, a good RW to play on the top line and another very good top 6 forward to play with Bennett. Hopefully one comes from within(Janko) and one has to come through trade or signing.

If you look at the Pens they don't really have a shutdown D man, so the Flames are ok on D but some upgrades may be needed, hopefully they come from with in.

Goaltending long term is question mark but hope fully one of the goalie in the system grabs it. If Elliott plays the same way as he did in the second half of the season, than we should be good.
