I get that everyone wants more scoring, but this is just simply not an issue right now. The Flames have a spectacular top line, and also manage to get good production from their depth players comparatively speaking. This looks like a recipe for success to me.

There's no guarantee they will continue scoring at the current pace. If they dip a little, which is more likely than not, you need your $5.75MM player to chip in. It's worrying that he looks like he can't score to save his life. I hope it's just a case of SamBennett-itis and he's able to shake that off before Christmas.
