The Flames overachieved last season. There is a very real chance we finish in the lottery regardless of whom we trade for. Especially if we lose Andersson.

But do the Flames finish in the exact same spot in 15/16 if they didn’t make the Hamilton trade?
These straight line ‘if this then that’ comparisons don’t make sense.
