Either way, it's a first at some point. So if they miss the playoffs this year Flames have to wait until the 2014 draft to use their pick. But they still get a 4th for this year, should St. Louis miss the big dance.
This rebuild won't happen overnight. Next season could be rough to watch. But if you have the money and the picks then you're sitting pretty.
