There are several teams better than the Flames who aren’t nearly as backed in to a corner.

A few things weren't planned:
-Tanev fitting in so well (if he was brittle/carried by others as some Nuck fans suggested, he would be exposed)
-Gio's good play. Most thought his contract would be a boat anchor by now. It looked that way at during the bubble/start of last year, but he turned it around to his credit.
-the team ####ting the bed. There is talent there. Last year they severely underachieved.
