We can contend in spite of average to below average defence and subpar goaltending is one of the silliest conclusions ever.

Edmonton really doesn't give those two positions the respect that they deserve, do they?

Took nothing out of the Colorado sweep, I guess? Was it just a glitch to them? Or can sobering lessons be taken away from having your show run. Because Colorado was the first legit team they faced that actually played legit.

The pacific division skews a lot of metrics. It was an extremely weak division last season. And yes, that also means the Flames may have benefitted from that. I think St. Louis and Colorado are a tier above the Flames. And I think they massively underperformed vs Edmonton.
