Man, the Flames D is downright scary, but they have some pretty big holes on offense outside of your big 2.
I wouldn't call them big holes, they're pretty small holes in my opinion. All of the guys on our top 2 lines are capable of 20+ goals and If Dawes were on the 2nd line instead of 3rd he may also be capable of 20. Lundmark ain't bad either if he can play like he did last season and the fourth line has some incredible grit. I think they will do just fine up front.

I'd switch Glencross and Dawes. From what I saw, it looked like Glencross and Conroy had some good chemistry last year. Given their point totals, trying that again could work out well.

I'm not gonna give any line up, but I'll just say this: people are really low-balling Eric Nystrom. Look at his playoff stats: he had 2 goals, two assists, plus one rating combined with smart, hard-nosed play. And if anyone watched that series with Chicago, you'd nearly have to admit, he was one of, if not the best Flame out there (but that doesn't say much, honestly; it was a brutal series). After a great post-season I think he has some potential to make some noise next year.

I don't think anyones low-balling Nystrom. We know what he can do. He has heart and grit with the ability to score clutch goals. He proved it last year in the regular season and the playoffs, but I don't see his ice time going up too much from last season. He's a 3rd liner at best and should kill a **** load of penalties.
