My concern is the Flames have a typical bounce back year after a down year. This team fails to meet expectations in a given year then expectations are reset and they exceed those to return the next year and underwhelm.

This is a team with 6 guys playing for new deals in a year where teams are expecting a cap jump next year. This team also has 3-4 key signed players who failed to live up to their expectations last year and are hungry to bounce back. With better vibes around the team I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to see them play to the potential people were giving them before last year started.

Flames are in 1st or 2nd place at the deadline what will they do?
