Flames are FAR more likely to be a playoff team based on the schedule remaining
Panthers also chose to do this with their presidents trophy winning team.
I think the main point here is that the Flames are expected to play a system not run and gun. Easier to put up points playing run and gun...harder to win long term. Comparing only points to say who is better is short sighted.
Huberdeau having top 3 defensive metrics for a forward after two months of Sutter is a good sign.
