I think I would tend to agree that under circumstances in which a team has four top-end NHL forwards, one of them should play RW.
Having said that, I think it is pretty well established that teams can and do win without four top-end forwards, but the way the Flames are set up for the future (top-end LW + two top-end centres), it makes the best sense to focus on addressing RW as a priority need. Not that the Flames need a star RW, only that they need a very good, bona-fide top six RW.
