Aside from Tkachuk it’s entirely possible the Flames young players are in their prime right now. Last year too.

It's also possible (and I think even likely) the majority of them have yet to put up career highs in goals and points.
I fully expect Gaudreau to challenge for a scoring title yet. Monahan to hit 40+ goals etc. I think Hamilton did well to lead the league in goals but think we'll see more overall points from him.
I think it would be a pretty pessimistic outlook to suggest we've seen the best of most of our young players yet. Pretty pessimistic... or someone just looking to argue with the same certain posters they fixate on.
