The Flames are about 50% in making the playoffs in the last decade and the Caps were like 90% before winning the Cup. The Caps won their division like 80% of the time. The Flames are probably like 30%. Caps won the Presidents Trophy the 2 years before the Cup. We also don't have the leagues greatest goal scorer ever. We don't have a number 1 dman like Carlson. Lindholm is no Kuznetsov in his prime. Maybe he's a Backstrom. I think we're squinting pretty hard to see these teams as comparable.
