Flames need more firepower from the front lines. And the defensive playing a better prevent game in their own end.
I think I will disagree. The 2 times we had the best teams in the league we had our defence set the tone for our attack.

Get the puck back quick and get it up ice, they won't always show up on the score sheet but they get the forwards going.

A group that can skate and create a 2nd wave of attack and get back. We had guys lke Gio, Bordie, Hanifin, Tanev, Kylington. Feels like we got a group coming up that are similar type of guys, and a few on the roster right now in Pachal and Weegar.
