These big splashes that teams make at the TD seldom work out well, anyways. Even for the prohibitive favourites like TB and Boston there remains a huge risk of running into a hot goalie, suffering serious injuries or something unforeseen that could end a playoff run in short order.
I have seen a few posters complaining about improvements that SJ, LA and VGK have made, but for the California teams these strike me as desperate moves from organizations that see their window slamming shut.
I am okay with the outcome for the Flames today.
