Are you counting on Gaudreau and Monahan having a off year? Gio playing like the best D-man over 35 in the league instead of just the best D-man?
Rittich getting worn down as he played past the 30 game point?
Mangiapane, Dube, Anderssson and even Talbot exceeded expectations. Backlund and Lindholm had close to career seasons... maybe the 2nd best season in each of their careers. Tkachuk lead the team in scoring.
What went wrong? Rieder and Jankowski not kicking 10 goals each from the 4th line?

No, you do not get to do this.
YOU are the one who posted the article which asserted that the Flames are a Stanley Cup contending team. If you disagree with that, then there is no reason really for anyone to take you seriously in your attempt to use the same article as a reliable measure for Jacob Markstrom.
