What’s got me upset is that we’re this deep into the “rebuild” and we’re still a one line team. Management has had years, YEARS, to build a deeper team with legitimate depth. They knew this offseason that scoring depth would be the biggest team problem and they still didn’t address it. On top of it all, they’ve burned countless assets to the point that we couldn’t even outbid a recent expansion franchise for Jack Eichel.
I posted this little nugget the other day that the Flames have relied on the top line for all 17 of the team’s wins this season. All 17 wins. So literally, if something happened to one member of the top line or if they happen to be held off the scoresheet that night then = instant loss. Us Flames fans have seen this song and dance before.

They are out of a playoff spot because of games played...2nd by winning %
It's fair to be concerned with recent results but they are only not in a playoff spot because of games played. Points % is the real standings...unless you assume they are losing all 3-6 games in hand
