The 2017-18 season went south for the Flames, so the Flames looked south for the solution.

The answer, apparently, was in Carolina.

After finishing sixth in the Pacific Division and out of the playoffs, Glen Gulutzan was out as head coach after two seasons, replaced by former Hurricanes coach Bill Peters.

The search didn't stop there, as the Flames and Hurricanes then orchestrated the biggest trade of the off-season: Dougie Hamilton, Michael Ferland and prospect Adam Fox to Carolina for Noah Hanifin and Elias Lindholm.

It's not so much a rebuild as it is a reset.

With Johnny Gaudreau (24G-60A-84 Pts) knocking on the door of the NHL's top tier, Sean Monahan (31-33-64) not far behind and a defence anchored by Mark Giordano (13-25-38), the Flames have the nucleus of a contender.

Adding Lindholm (16-28-44) and free-agent James Neal (25-19-44) to the mix gives the Flames options for a top line that can compete with most in the league.

As good as Hamilton is, it wasn't working in Calgary. In Hanifin, the fifth overall pick of the 2015 draft, the Flames get a defenceman with tremendous upside. That was clearly the thinking in quickly signing him to a six-year deal with an annual average value of $ 4.95 million US. If Hanifin develops the way the Flames hope, he will be a bargain at that price.

In net, Mike Smith (.916 SV%., 2.65 GAA) has proven the reliable goaltender the Flames wanted when they acquired the 36-year-old from Arizona in 2017.

Johnny Gaudreau had a goal and an assist to extend his career-best point streak to 10 games and the Calgary Flames beat the Washington Capitals 4-1 on Monday night.

Gaudreau scored and assisted on Sean Monahan’s goal, one of two on the power play for Calgary, which has won four of its past five. Mikael Backlund and captain Mark Giordano also scored for the Flames, who got 29 saves from Mike Smith.

Gaudreau, nicknamed “Johnny Hockey,” has eight goals and 11 assists during his point streak. Led by the Carneys Point, N.J., native, the Flames are 7-3-0 in that time.

Lars Eller scored the only goal for the Capitals, who took five minor penalties and lost for the third time in four games. Braden Holtby allowed four goals on 39 shots.

The Flames came in feeling good after a comeback victory in Philadelphia and a 1950s-themed train ride to Washington. But the Capitals took a 1-0 lead just 62 seconds in when Jakub Vrana found Eller for his fourth goal of the season.

Calgary controlled much of the play from that point on, tying it on Gaudreau’s goal 4:49 in and taking a lead on Monahan’s power-play goal 5:22 into the second. Monahan had a goal and an assist after a power-play hat trick Saturday against the Flyers.

Washington’s parade to the penalty box gave the Flames momentum and then their third goal at 4:38 of the second when Backlund buried a loose puck. Giordano’s goal to make it 4-1 was effectively a third power-play goal as it came 1 second after ex-Flames forward Alex Chiasson’s penalty expired.

Last season’s story

In 2016-17, the Flames returned to the playoff picture, guided by new coach Glen Gulutzan. 

Johnny Gaudreau and Sean Monahan were both signed to long-term deals, giving Calgary some stability up front to complement a deep blue-line. 

A slash to the left hand of Gaudreau in November required surgery to repair a fractured finger, but he was sidelined for only two and a half weeks as opposed to the possible six-week timeline that was initially feared. 

Calgary had a goal differential of just plus-3 during the regular season, the lowest of any team to qualify for the playoffs in 2016-17.

However, the Flames pieced together a six-game winning streak after a slow start and then caught fire to win 10 in a row beginning in late February — enough to grab a wild-card spot in the playoffs.

The Flames ran into their nemesis, the Anaheim Ducks, in the first round and were swept. 

The off-season

Just when it was time to start talking about line combinations and the battle for fourth-line work, attention in Calgary and around the league was squarely focused on arena negotiations that would eventually reach a standstill. 

Prior to the much-publicized battle with the city over funding for a new home, the Flames had been busy taking care of their on-ice needs.

The acquisition of Mike Smith addressed the need for a No. 1 goalie and they bolstered an already strong defensive corps with the acquisition of Travis Hamonic from the New York Islanders and by re-signing Michael Stone. 

A busy summer for the Flames also included re-signing forwards Michael Ferland and Sam Bennett as well as Curtis Lazar, who was acquired at the trade deadline. Eddie Lack was also acquired to shore up the goaltending tandem with prospect Jon Gillies knocking on the door. 

Dream scenario

The Flames were 17th in goals against average last season at 2.67, but surely that stands to be lowered with the tandem of Smith and Lack providing stability in net and a defensive unit that is six deep and headlined by Mark Giordano, Dougie Hamilton, T.J. Brodie and Hamonic.

Smith faced his former team in the pre-season and beforehand told told NHL.com that would allow him to move on quickly and focus on his future with the Flames. 

Three strong defensive pairings, firepower on offence from the likes of Gaudreau and Monahan, and greater contributions from Bennett and Lazar will allow Calgary to keep pace with provincial rival Edmonton in a stacked Pacific Division. 

It has been a strange start to the 2000s for the Flames. They made it to the Stanley Cup final in 2004, starting a stretch of five consecutive playoff appearances. Calgary was on the outside looking in for the following five seasons, before reaching the post-season in two of the past three years. 

Calgary was swept by the Anaheim Ducks last season, but three of those games were decided by one goal. Factoring in the experience gained from that series and the improvements made to the roster, the Flames just might be built for a deeper run this season. 

Nightmare scenario

The Flames appear set with their top lines, but the club will also have to hope that young forwards Lazar and Bennett take a step forward.

Like any club searching for consistency in net, the Flames could find themselves fighting an uphill battle this season if Smith can’t deliver.

The season could go off the rails fast for the Flames if they struggle out of the gate. Winning is always the best distraction, but if the losses pile up and a new arena can’t be secured, the talk will quickly shift to the fate of the team’s future in Calgary.

Calgary Flames rookie Matthew Tkachuk has been suspended two games for elbowing Los Angeles Kings defenceman Drew Doughty in the face.

Tkachuk will miss the Flames’ upcoming games Tuesday at the Washington Capitals and Thursday at the Nashville Predators. The NHL’s department of player safety announced the suspension Monday night.

The play occurred late in the first period of Sunday’s game between the Flames and Kings.

Tkachuk was behind L.A.’s net when the puck rimmed around the boards toward him. Doughty moved from in front of the net to try and get to the puck before Tkachuk, but the Calgary forward pre-emptively threw his elbow up and into the jaw of the Kings’ defenceman.

Tkachuk, son of former NHL forward Keith Tkachuk, will forfeit $ 10,278 in salary. The No. 5 pick in the 2016 draft has 13 goals and 33 assists for 46 points in 68 games in his rookie season.

Chad Johnson stopped 31 shots in regulation and then turned away Pittsburgh’s Phil Kessel and Sidney Crosby in the shootout. The Penguins’ Kris Letang hit the post on his team’s final attempt.

Michael Frolik scored his 13th goal of the season and Micheal Ferland added his eighth as Calgary picked up two valuable points in the crowded chase for one of the final playoff spots in the wide-open Western Conference.

Crosby inched closer to becoming the 86th player in NHL history to reach 1,000 points when he assisted on Chris Kunitz’s third-period goal for career point No. 998.

Rookie forward Jake Guentzel forced overtime with his fifth of the season with just under five minutes remaining. Matt Murray made 28 saves but had no chance on Versteeg’s beautiful deke in the shootout.
