I think we will see a repeat of last year. The UFAs are traded and then maybe Andersson if he wants out. If Conroy doesn’t add any players and they still finish outside the bottom ten then I will be annoyed but not mad. I will only be mad if the Flames spend assets to add older players or re-signs Kuzmenko/Mantha to gross contracts.

I think this season's fortunes depend on 2 things:

(1) Whether Andersson gets traded this year; and
(2) Whether the goaltending can stay at the existing level, or close to it.
So chicago an sj were crappy last year. They are still crappy.

How does that work? Your employer found out you were spreading inside info and told you to stop, but now decided they're okay with having info leaked online and gave you the green light?

Who’s left to sell? I think the guys that are left that would get you anything are staying.

I agree; that's how I see the season playing out. The only difference I see is if the young players on the team take a step to increase the competitiveness of the team. Otherwise, this team is probably drafting 6 to 10 range in my opinion. This season really depends on how the young players elevate the team.
