How is a 2nd line player considered untouchable?

I am not one for trading everybody but if the flames keep all prospects and young players, in 2 years the flames will have the smallest team in the NHL. Even if Burke hits a home run with every pick this year, and drafts big players, it would still take 3-4 years until they are ready for the NHL. Flames need to get at least one youngster that is big and is near NHL ready. I doubt that kind of youngster would come cheap.
