This post was a joke, I'm well aware. In all seriousness though, we need depth to not tank like the Oilers.
The Flames want to keep games competitive and build on their hardworking identity. Some level of depth is needed to achieve that. If there are 2 rookies penciled into the line-up with a healthy roster come training camp, a joke of a team is what we can expect.
Injuries happen early and often, especially if D. Jones remains on our team. We will see Baertchi, Gaudreau, Poirier, Wotherspoon and Granlund at some point this season. It's all but guaranteed.
