Predictions for the 2015-16 Season

[Lunatik]

Let's make some predictions.

I will make 3.

1. We will have the highest scoring blueline in the NHL.
2. Colborne (if healthy) will finish with 55+ points (15g+40a).
3. Deryk Engelland will fight 3 Canucks at once.

The Flames will win at least one game.

[Anglesmith]

1. Mikael Backlund plays all 82 games.
2. Sam Bennett scores at least 50 points as a rookie.
3. Paul Byron scores on his first breakaway.

 

[1989]

Flames have a 100+ point season and finish 4th or better in the West.

Gaudreau cements himself in the League with a PPG season.

Backlund has his first 50+ point campaign playing alongside Frolik and Bennett.

2nd round exit vs Chicago unfortunately.

Backlund gets more points than old man Eric Staal.

So you are expecting us to win the wildcard and cross over?

 

[Lunatik]

Backlund gets more points than old man Eric Staal.

old man Staal is younger than old man Giordano

Thought the wildcard was for first round only, not second.

 

[Lunatik]

Thought the wildcard was for first round only, not second.

it's divisional in rounds 1 & 2, so we need to crossover in the first round to be in the central. However maybe Chicago crosses over to the Pacific and plays the Ducks in round 1

 

[InfinityIggy]

old man Staal is younger than old man Giordano

Yeah but Giordano is a D so he is just hitting his stride

 

[Lunatik]

Yeah but Giordano is a D so he is just hitting his stride

I'm sure with Backlund's injuries he feels like he is 30

 

[Monahan For Mayor*]

Sam Bennett Wins Calder 50+ points (McDavid doesn't live to the hype)
Flames have The Norris winner
Flames have two defensemen over 60 Points in Gio and Hamilton
Flames win a game in Anaheim!!!

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

-Batman and Robin each crack 70 points.
-Flames finish 5th in the West.
-Gio and Backlund miss significant games (20-30).
-Raymond goes to the Heat.

 

[Yung Rotini]

-Flames tank for Matthews
-Flames win the draft lottery

 

[BigRangy]

-Flames do not win a game in Anaheim
-one of the top 5 d-men is traded during the season
-Bennett is 2nd-line center by the end of january

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Judging by the incredibly serious predictions above...
1. Paul Byron finally breaks out, scores 40+ points as our 2nd line LW
2. Oliver Kylington makes the team out of training camp.
3. Michael Backlund is traded at/before the trade deadline.
