The immediate results were bad. But there was a lot of work started in overhauling the department and getting the resources in place to build it.
The Flames were excessively neglegent with the department pre Sutter. Unable to stock their own AHL team, the system was really depleted. Many strategic moves were made that have set the organization up to start doing a better job in the draft.
