I've seen this many times over the years and I've seen the Flames get off to bad starts many times. Poor starts can make the difference between making the playoffs or not.
I just hope Peters knows what he's doing.

Understood but we've also seen Flames preseason where the lines are more or less set from the start and likely the end of the last season for the most part, and still have the tepid starts.
I think the China trip will be great upon reflection in a few months, given a new coach and up to 5 new top 3 line guys plus a new coach.
Get out of Edmonton unscathed, figure out the 6rh defenseman and the forward log jam, and bring on the Canucks this week x2.
