as well adding the 23 goal scorer (Stastny) will limit opportunity for Backlund and Jankowski to reach their 18 goals. If somehow the Flames get a 23 goal RW Ferland would have trouble making 18.
Over the last season the Flames had very low injuries.
The Flames need 3 more top-6 players or at least Ferland level guys who are very solid top-9. Need to sign 2 and have someone make the same step forward as Ferland did.
You have Bennett jumping from 11 goals to 15. Not impossible but a big jump for someone who is getting moved down the ice-time.
Backlund has career highs of 22, 21 and 18 goals missing a total of 6 games in his career seasons.

Why do your posts seem like they are in morris code?
So what exactly is your argument?
I mentioned injuries.
A line up of ...
Gaudreau - Monahan - new guy
Tkachuk - Backlund - Ferland
Bennett - Jankowski - Frolik
wouldn't result in ice time losses for any player but Frolik from my estimation. Evolution of young players and having a defensive sound player like Frolik could do wonders for Bennett and Jankowski.
You don't seem to be saying anything
