The problem was both. If w draft top 3 of either of those drafts we get a much better player and you have to go back 6 spots to get Tanguay in the Fata draft and the guys in the 5 spots after Tzaczuk were very hit and miss.
Samsanov was a realistic possibility for Tzaczuk but I don't think that switch changes a whole lot for the Flames fortunes over that time.
