Every roster is flawed, and its not like I'm out here saying the over/under should be 100 points. 80 points is low, that is a "a lot went wrong" number not an expected.

I feel like I do this every September...more often than not the Flames are supposedly a terrible bottom 5 team. History suggests otherwise. The Flames hit the over on betting lines more often than not. Like when were the Flames under 80 points last? a decade ago? They have been a bottom 5 team one time in franchise history?

The Athletics coverage of the Flames is at the very least lazy, I don't think there is a real argument otherwise.

I also don't see any argument that the opening night roster in 2025 isnt better than 2024

Reminds me of Gaudreau's first season where nobody in the media would even give the Flames a bump despite adding one of the best rookies in the entire league. People are sleeping on ZP big time, in another market he would be getting far more fanfare.
