Carolina reminds me of the flames a bit just a few years earlier in the rebuild curve, they have some good pieces on the blueline, mix of young and veteran forwards that are OK if not elite (7 forwards over 40 points last year but only one over 60) and unpredictable goaltending.

I feel like they will basically be as good as Scott Darling is. The rest of their team is good enough to win in front of an all-star but not so good to survive and make the playoffs in front of say... Eddie Lack

Hope Darling stones the Oilers.
