You add 3 1st round draft picks with one elite player like Monahan/Lindholm and add them to the NHL-ready players the Flames have in their system and they have 8 players READY to play!
After this draft, I think the Flames have a top 5 Youth/Prospects depth chart in the NHL.

Yeah I'm going to say no to that. If they have a good draft they should be able to move into the 10-20 territory but as it sits now the Flames still are in the bottom 10 of the league as far as prospects go.
