We’re going to open with a confession about The (patent pending) NHL Hope-O-Meter.
…
Yes, this is still a 1-32 ranking of teams, based on their fanbase’s state of mind. It just leans on your words, not mine. The question was simple, and the answers were fun, insightful, and weird. There’s one from each side of the coin per team, but that doesn’t mean that every team has half its fan base in each camp. Far from it, actually.
How hopeful are you for the coming season? Let’s find out.

Calgary finished 31st, just ahead of Buffalo, with a paltry score of 18.6%

31. Calgary Flames — 18.6
Optimist Eric: Hoping some of the young guys can continue to develop and maybe Calgary is able to bring in a certain superstar who is on the block.
Pessimist Erik: Can’t wait to finish between 7th and 12th in the West, draft between 9th and 17th overall, and do it all again next year!
