Except judging the trade is a separate issue. I'm saying you have the same team as last year but you have improved goal tending. You have Hamonic and Stone for an entire year. You expect improvement from your young guys like Tkachuck, Ferland, Gaudreau, Monahan, Hamilton, etc. With the Flames playing very well in the second half of last season it would be reasonable to assume that the team and coach were getting on the same page. I just don't see how you can reasonably look at those things and conclude before the season started the team would be worse.
