For most hockey teams it is generally clear for many fans as to who the best player on a team is such as Sidney Crosby on the Pittsburgh Penguins and Connor McDavid on the Edmonton Oilers. But for the Calgary Flames it isn't clear to me who their best player is currently. In your opinion who do you think is the best player on the Calgary Flames? In my opinion I think the best player on the Calgary Flames is Sean Monahan. I feel that he is their best player as he is big, strong, smart, and great in all situations on the ice. He is also a great playoff performer, and I think him along with Connor McDavid will have a great rivalry going on in the future as the respective best players on Calgary and Edmonton. I also believe he will be the future captain possibly. I hope he can bring a Stanley Cup to the Calgary Flames in the future. He is the best player they have had since Jarome Iginla. I don't think he will ever be as good as Jarome Iginla was but I believe he will be a great player regardless. Some people say Johnny Gaudreau is better but I don't think so as I would take the much bigger, stronger player rather than the smaller, faster, flashier player. I don't think either of them will will be as great of a player and captain as Jarome Iginla was but it will be interesting to see how close they can become to matching him. On a side note it would be cool to see either of them get into a fight with Jarome Iginla and see how they would do against him. I think he would destroy them in a fight in his prime and still would beat them in a fight now at almost 40. Another question is do you think if the Calgary Flames had the team they have now along with a prime Jarome Iginla and prime Miikka Kiprusoff without any salary cap issues that they would be a Stanley Cup contender and a favourite to win the Stanley Cup? I believe they would as they are already a great team, and having their only weakness which has been their mediocre goalies recently fixed by having Miikka Kiprusoff in net would allow them to win a Stanley Cup. Also another question is would the current Calgary Flames beat the 2004 Calgary Flames in a playoff series. I don't think they would as I feel the 2004 Calgary Flames would beat them pretty easily as they are better everywhere than the current Calgary Flames.
