People writing their obituary is hilarious. It's unlikely they reach those heights again (because the odds are against anybody), but they are still a very, very good team (at least in the playoffs).

They are one of the oldest teams in the league and went on their impressive run during the Trotz era. Flames will likely be a good team as long as they have Sutter and buy in. Throw Huska or Mueller in there and this team could fall apart as well.
