The Flames will likely do a lot better when they get to play Ottawa.
How much of the Flames success over the last 2 years came from having an easy schedule? playing in the Pacific division.
The Flames got a more easy games (LA, Ana, SJ, Arz) against teams that won less than 50% of their games and had fewer games against elite teams. Vegas ... the only elite team in the Pacific was 8th in the league. The oilers were 12th.
this year's Canadian division is harder than the last year's Pacific.
Huge 4 game series coming up with the Jets.
