Flames lost in 5 games but 3 of those were very winnable. They had a bad series but were not blown out like they were against the Avs

The challenge for me is that this isn't your typical, growing as a group, year. This isn't a situation like the lightening that they can come back stronger after learning from this.
Their primary offensive threat, 2 of their most important forwards might not even be here.
If try can keep those guys and continue to build around them, sure. If not, tweaking around what's left without gaudreau and tkachuk is useless. Need to replace those guys. Only can happen thru the draft. Or we use the opened up cap and overspend on guys like Coleman.
