Flames have a fairly compact first half of the season too.

I get that's a thing playing injured and all but with the Flames this year and being so close they should have just shut these guys down and play the young guys.
It shows what's going on in the organization a bit and that there isn't really a strong long term plan but rather win right now. Had they made the playoffs and lost the first round and even win a couple games it would have been about look at how tough our guys are.
I just don't think it's a solid plan going forward this way. I think the new/younger players should be more quickly utilized and given opportunities.
