If you want to compare Flames to the Avalanche and not acknowledge the difference in injuries they have faced then you’re not living in reality IMO.
I’m not assuming OK is in the top 4 on this team. Weegar sure as hell wasn’t signed to be a 5/6. So while unfortunate, I just don’t consider that a “significant injury” and little to do with how the arson has gone.

Again, I don’t think he was trying to equate what the Flames have gone through with what the Ava have gone through, just responding to the comment that the Flames were without any significant injuries. If you don’t think missing OK is significant, that’s fine, we can agree to disagree as I agree with dino in that it seems significant to me.
I took the general comment about the Avs to be more of an “anything can happen” kind of thing, not a “we’re as good as he Stanley Cup winners by any measure” kind of thing.
