- We have solid young players in Gaudreau, Monahan, Tkachuk and Ferland who all look to be having career years
- The play of youngsters Jankowski, Bennett (sans the start) and Kulak has been encouraging
- Vets Backlund and Smith are making a difference as key contributors to the team
- A legend is likely going to finish out his career as a Flame and will likely have an impact on the younger core for years to come
- Dube, Anderssson, Valimaki, Fox, Kylington and Mangiapane all look to be trending towards becoming NHLers. Dark horses in Klimchuk, Poirier, Wotherspoon and Foo could do so as well (I actually think Dube is our most NHL ready forward prospect - kid would be an upgrade on 4-5 players on the current roster - only issue may be strength?)
- We have solid goaltending depth in Smith, Rittich, Gillies and Parsons
- Our d-core has played nowhere near its potential so one would think it should improve
