This team has a tonne of depth organizationally. I really like Hathaway, and glad the Flames signed him. Prospects are going to have to raise their compete in order to get to the Flames. There will be a few prospects (probably starting this off-season) that the Flames are going to be letting go/trading that will make a few of us upset (everyone has their favorites). Just a good sign that your organization is getting stronger.
Flames are going to be a very nasty team to play against in the bottom 6. Hathaway, Bouma, Carrol, Smith, Ferland, Harrison, Van Brabant, etc.,. Lots of options there down the road. The Flames in the near future are really going to start looking like the late 80's Flames - loads of high-end skill, but loads of jam and nastiness too.
