I count 3... unless I'm missing the "they're going to finish last again this year" joke, of course.

It would be interesting to add up the number of first-rounders that each team has had playing for them at different times. I count four for the Flames: Bridgeman, Ramage, Nolan and Hamrlik. For some reason, I always think that Wickenheiser played for us too, but of course he never did. I don't know why I always think that.
