It's going to take some time for things to be fixed. I think there are some promising kids in the pipeline but not having a 1st round pick for 2 straight years coupled with busts Chucko and likely Pelech - well its not hard to see why we are where we are.
No sense dwelling on it - what matters now is what happens going forward.

That's part of the reason the Flames really need to improve their scouting of the NCAA, among other things, as the seniors that are ready to sign are farther in their development, which will allow them to make up for some of the failed picks of the past.
Signing a few players from there would definitely go a long way to get the depth back in the system that we're currently lacking.
