Team: 2022-23 Calgary Flames

Initial Creation Date: Aug. 30, 2022

Published: Aug. 30, 2022

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Flames had a hell of an offseason this year. At the start everyone was saying how they were one of the biggest losers and Treliving should be fired, but then they made the Tkachuk trade and it was a MASSIVE W for Calgary. And then even though it’s a horrible contract, they signed Kadri. It seems like the Flames are in win now mode, and while losing Gaudreau hurts a lot, they’ll still be among the top of the pacific.

Key additions: Huberdeau, Weegar, Kadri, Rooney
Key losses: Gaudreau, Tkachuk, Monahan
Leader in Goals: Elias Lindholm
Leader in Points: Jonathan Huberdeau
Best Defenseman: MacKenzie Weegar
Rookies: Jacob Pelletier, Connor Zary
Breakout Candidate: Dan Vladar
Bounceback Candidate: Mikael Backlund
Biggest Strength: Defense
Biggest Weakness: Bottom 6
Offseason Grade: B+
Prediction: 106 points, 2nd in Pacific

The only way Vladar breaks out is if Markstrom is injured.
Zary isn't making the roster, and Pelletier could be sent down after a 10 game stint. People sleeping on Ruzicka and over hopeful for Pelletier imo.

Coleman and Backlund should always be on the same line. Zary should stay in the minors, Ruzicka or Rooney are fit enough for 4C
