Wolf establishing himself as not only a true #1G, but a top 10 one at that. Vladar would have to follow suit and show himself to be a 1b. Basically, Flames would need elite goaltending from start to finish of the season.
Huberdeau would have to somehow turn himself into a top 5 F like he was in FLA. He would have to become a true gamebreaker and be able to take over games on his own.
The D would have to somehow gel perfectly and have a solid 1-4 with good rotations of 5-7.
PP and PK would both have to be better than league average.
A true #1C would have to emerge, but that is the least likeliest of all scenarios that have to take place.
