I'm not sure what you're trying to prove but it ain't working. I'm looking at the players as they are today, not the fact that Patches played a bunch of PO games in the past for a different team. Is their top line better than the Flames? Nope. Is their second line better? Not IMO.
On most rankings every position on the top two lines has Calgary's guy ahead of Vegas' except for Stone at first or second line RW. Some have Stastny ahead of Backlund, but I don't think so, especially defensively. Otherwise, Gaudreau beats Marchessault, Monahan beats Karlsson, Lindholm beats Smith, Tkachuk beats Paccioretty.
