I don't know if there's a standard at all. For the Flames, it looks like they did the captains first, then the goalies, then everyone else by jersey number.
EDIT: Checking out a few other teams, it looks like most teams put the captain(s) first followed by the players in alphabetical order.
Tampa's list doesn't have any logical order that I can figure out.
Anaheim's is weird too -- I think they ordered it by the players' seniority in the league. Penner, Getzlaf, and Perry are the last three players listed, so it's not alphabetical or numeric and they were the three youngest players on that team.
