I didn't mention injuries at all, so your reply doesn't really fit.
But yeah Markstrom and Monahan are big injuries know doubt about it, they add up to almost $13M in payroll. Both played hurt for big stretches of the season that wouldn't figure into games missed stats.
But I was talking about play ... Calgary had most of their key players have off years.
If that's the path forward than they're cooked, but I'm guessing some of those players bounce back.
