It seems a little harsh, but I could buy that most teams on average have 2 players better than any players on the Flames, just among forwards. Probably half the teams in the league have at least 1 defenseman better than any of the Flames defensemen.
We lost our 2 best forwards a year ago and the new forwards brought in didn't exactly prove that they are better. We can speculate that they can be better on the Flames, but they haven't proven anything at this point.
It's worth noting on this list, Seattle players are also quite low yet they were one of the highest scoring teams in the NHL last season and made the 2nd round of the playoffs. Teams can be successful without having top fantasy players.
