Rather than start a new thread, THW author did a NHL team ranking by D.

Flames 15th. Yikes - not sure how much stock to put into this (like none). I think they're easy Top 5!
But don't mind being underdogs.

"ANALYSIS: The Calgary Flames’ defensive unit is easy to underappreciate. With the addition of Weegar, this is a formable core that you could argue should be higher up this list. They feature solid depth, and while they don’t have a star to anchor them, they also don’t have any glaring holes either. Overall, this is a playoff-worthy defense that should hopefully take another step this season."
