To be fair, I think it shows the strength and depth of the Western Conference
And the Flames are a lot different as well...

The Flames still have all the goaltending, scoring and defensive D. But have addressed the areas of weakness, both short term and long term, by adding forward defense and checking in Gaustad, Pyatt and Hunter in the top 9.
In other news the Flames have qualified for the playoffs, for only the third time in their history (though 3 out of the last 4 years), and managed to reach two important endorsement qualifications. They will have a home record over .500, attendance over 90% (and sneaking very close to the 95% marker for a 500K bonus), and have improved more than 20 points over last year (21 so far). With a couple of home playoff games ahead, the Flames should start next year with at least 13 million in the bank, the first time the Flames have had over 10 million since 2003.
