You give Coronato, Pelletier, Zary, Phillips the kind of icetime any of these other guys had this year and they’ll have about the same production.

That is pretty much it though. The Flames needed their best players to be the best players and they weren't. To make a major difference in the playoff hunt you'd have to be banking on Wolf to outperform Markstrom and Vladar and the rookie forwards to out produce the NHL players they are replacing over an extended period. Pelletier had 7 points in 23 games.
