Fair enough, but facts are what they are and historically the Flames have a putrid draft record.
If you were giving orders, knowing the draft results in recent years, would you prefer your GM to sell every available asset for picks that would eventally develop into third line checking wingers and serviceable defenseman, or would ou prefer to keep the asssest and try to build around them with trades and free agency?

I would prefer a GM that can draft, hopefully AGM Wisebroad is the ticket.
