I am starting to think the flames are going to play themselves out of the bottom 3 over the next few games. For a few reasons:
-they are the most rested team in the league especially in terms of their highest impact players.
-Wolf looks dialled in and rested. That usually means he’s going look unbeatable for a few games.
-Kadri is on a hot streak and, when he is on one of those, he can carry a team. We’ve seen it with the flames and even with Colorado when McKinnon was injured.
-guys like Zary and Klapka have found their game.
Of course… a big trade could derail that but I could see the team leaning on Wolf to squeak out wins even after Kadri/Coleman are gone.
