The Jets also looked like a lot of meh results wise despite having talent and were largely seen as behind Calgary as recently as a year ago. They found their footing and put it together pretty quickly. I can see the same thing with the Flames with the right next couple acquisitions and a more suitable system. There's 'immediate' potential there, even if it wasn't realized in the most recent season. A lot went wrong when it came to the entire group of top scorers, which would've hampered other teams in the same way.
