Ya, I think they were talking about this on the Fan maybe not that long ago.
So we are in need of two elite forwards, which I believe we have right now, but they are still too young to be the tops in the league (Bennett, Monahan, JG).
I think we have 2 elite defensemen this year in Brodie and Gio. We lack elite goal tending. Hopefully we have 1 in the system in Gillies or Ortio.
Say in 5 seasons, we should have 3 elite forwards in the guys I mentioned above, plus Brodie as the #1 guy and we have to hope one of the goalies pans out as an elite tender.
The future looks very bright for the Flames.
