At the end of the day, it's all about the core. And the Flames' core is very young, plus Giordano.

I think top six forwards, top four D and starting goaltender would be a better look at age. Perhaps even top nine forwards as it blends better time wise with the top four D.
Gaudreau 24
Monahan 23
Lindholm
Tkachuk 20
Backlund 28
Neal 31
Bennett 21
Jankowski 23
Frolik 29
Forwards 24.8
Giordano 34
Brodie 27
Hanifin 22
Hamonic 27
Defensemen 27.5
Smith 36
Goalie 36
Team 26.3
You could put Ryan in for Jankowski and add age, but then you could put Czarnik in for Frolik and reduce the age as well
