Im not sure how anyone can critically evaluate this team and see anything but a middle of the pack team with everything going right.
No number one defencemen.
Bottom pair a revolving door, middle pair solid but unspectacular.
None of the pairing are particularly mobile.
Number one center over 35, while playing great, he is a 1b type center.
Second center also 35+. Never been offensive producer not about to start now.
Frost is playing at bottom six borderline middle six type numbers he has been ok.
4th line center revolving door hope Beecher can solidify the position for a bit.
No superstar on wings but some good steady players but with poor center depth, and a not very mobile defence, not used to full advantage. Goaltending is good but only thing that is.
Can anyone point to a team in history that had two plus 35 centers, no number one defender, and no stars on the wings that anyone took seriously other than flames ownership as a contender?
