If the Flames can solve the following, then they have a good chance IMO to make the show again:

1. Solve their goaltending woes
2. Find a top-6 winger (draft and/or free agency)
3. Not a real concern but if they can deal one of these players from each category below and bring up some young assets that are ready.

Forwards:
Raymond, Bollig, Stajan

Defence:
Smid, Wideman, Engelland

If the Flames luck out and draft first overall, meanwhile trade a player or two from the category above, the Flames could be a scary team. One can dream of:

Gaudreau-Monahan-X
Bennett-Matthews?-Lucic?
Colborne-Backlund-Frolik
Bouma-Stajan-Ferland

Brodie-Hamilton
Gio-Engelland
Joki-Nakladal

Reimer?
Ortio
