Calgary Flames quietly leading the NHL in preseason standings

[the valiant effort]

Who do you think Backlund will hand the Preseason Cup to first?

“After 12 training camp days… NAZEM KADRI”

Skip the regular season and just have the Sabres and Flames play a series for the cup, tbh. Save everybody a lot of time.

You mean Flames and Rochester Americans. Look at the "Buffalo" rosters. We even had to call up a new mascot.

This post is like preseason for the silly things people will say after ten games are played.

[Ciao]

Skip the regular season and go right to the playoffs?

I'm with you. Oh boy. It takes all kinds, doesn't it?

With a win over Kraken, they are #1 in the standings. 6 games, 5 wins and 1 OTL. Only team that doesn't have a regulation loss so far.

A lot of guys were writing them off prior to the season. But that team still has a lot of talent and they are hungry to prove themselves. Are they going to be a playoff team again?

It's the preseason.

Buckle in lad, if this is your high, hang on to it when the season begins.

Look I've said it once already that for purely Calgary reasons they will some how be good enough to cheat them out a good draft pick this season.

I give two thumbs up for the use of the word "quietly".

Meanwhile the Devils were on track for a winless preseason (a guaranteed precursor to a winless regular season) until they shipped all their NHL players to Eastern Europe and gave their minor leaguers the opportunity to ruin the perfection.

You can't be serious, you're out to lunch

Preseason hardly is an indicator, however that bit of confidence early on could help them get off to a good start which is needed if they have a chance at a playoff spot

I hope not. We really need to pick high and get a franchise changing player.

They aren't a Flames fan, this is their first ever post regarding Calgary, but have a bunch about McDavid, Draisaitl, Bouchard... I'm sure you can guess what that means.

The worst season the Avs ever had, I want to say they went perfect in the preseason, so take that for what you will lol

Hey I'm all for the Flames finishing last and picking a franchise 1C!

Sadly, the Avs didn't even get the first overall pick after that, but worked out even falling to the 4th pick

Are they tanking this year?

Last year's preseason undefeated NJ Devils have entered the chat....
