These days a contender is any team that is likely to make the playoffs.
The margins are simply that thin these days.
To suggest that a team that has a 46 year old winger on its first line cannot be a contender is simply wrong.
And who knows if the intention of the Flames is to cement him on the first line?
He would certainly get PP time, but I would see him as part of the mix.
