With the guys we have in the pipeline we probably have the pieces to have that type of defence again.

I think that's actually a fundamental flaw the Flames have in team building though. Scoring from the back end should be secondary, not heavily relied upon. Just like Edmonton being a one trick Pony of relying on scoring from 2 or 3 players, you can't go too deep without most of the offense coming from the FW group. Flames need more firepower from the front lines. And the defensive playing a better prevent game in their own end.
