Not an analysis, a statement of fact.

I am not saying these players cannot or will not improve their point totals on the Flames, only that their numbers are less than the players they are replacing. Full stop.

For a team that was already hurting for goals, bringing in two players who put up fewer goals is a gamble. Anyone who wants to make projections, go ahead. There are some good cases to be made. But then we all thought the Flames would be a playoff team with one of the best defences in the league a year ago. So until it happens, projections are what they are.
