Calibrate expectations people. This team isn’t going to have 5 point per game players this year. Results will reflect that.

They could certainly take a step back, but the Flames didn't over achieve last year.
Every metric had them top 5-7 in the league, and they did that with below average goaltending and bottom third special teams.
Giordano at 36 has to regress, the rest are younger players that should get better.
It's six games people ... yikes
