There are a lot of question marks, for sure. Especially on D. But there is also a lot of depth, and it is a roster that could look good under Sutter.
The big ace in the hole - the chance for the Flames to be a strong or really strong team, is the goaltending. It might be fantastic.
The reason I am excited about this team is the combination of potentially having great goaltending, along with a great coach. A lot has to go right, but those two things could be a great foundation to build on.
