The Flames have Weegar, Anderrson and Bahl. The other defenders might be the 7th or 8th on the depth chart on most teams.
I'm telling you, this is one of the most impressive goalie seasons ever, all things considered.

Yes, you are telling us - over and over and over again.
That doesn't make your hyperbole any more accurate, but your commitment to the cause is certainly impressive.
Have the goalies been great? Absolutely. But the way fans completely ignore how committed the team is to defensive paly, is just baffling. People see what they want to see, and since the Flames aren't scoring, the team and the coach must be terrible at all things. However, a big reason why they are 32nd offensively, is their complete team commitment to defense.
Goaltending, team defense, and work ethic. Those are the 3 things driving this team.
