Initial Creation Date: Nov. 25, 2020
Published: Nov. 26, 2020
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
With the moves the Flames have made this offseason, this team could be a serious contender. Of course the way the rest of the good teams in the Pacific play matter a lot to Calgary’s success. But regardless this is a much improved team that could be very good and go on a deep playoff run.

Some people think the flames are going to be like 2nd or 3rd, and others who believe they could be 2nd or 3rd last in an all Canadian division.
I think it would be
Leafs
Edmonton
Montreal/Calgary
Winnipeg
Vancouver
Ottawa

We were about 2 minutes away from beating the cup runners-up in 5 without a top 4 D for the entire time and our best player for most of the series and we’re better now so I’m gonna go with yes here

They might be a contender, let's face it, if this season does get going it's going to be pretty wide open, an injury or two could really sink some teams, a hot goalie could carry another, who knows how it's gonna go, Calgary looks good enough to pull it off if they can get it together, something has looked off with them the last few years.

I don't think the Flames are a contender this year, I think they can be a playoff team but if so, it'll be a first round exit.
The forwards are better and getting better. I think the defense took a step back this off-season but will get better in future years.

I need to see Markstrom play before I judge goaltending. I can't tell if it's going to be Lehner on Chicago or Bob on Florida. I can't help but have a bad feeling because it's a pricier signing and that added pressure doesn't bode well. BUT! I think years after that could be good once that pressure is off from time passing and the defense improves.
