Its so unbalanced I think this year especially you will need to wait 20-25 games to even get a read.
That is the concern is that the hole will be too big to dig out of but the Flames will do their best to make it interesting enough to not really threaten for a spot but pull themselves out of the bottom 5 and into the more mushy middle of picking 8-13. I can see that happening especially if Huberdeau is able to come back and make a difference. It shows how much the team needs him with how terrible their offense has been to start.
