Depending on how Shinkaruk, Porier, Klimchuck turn out the 2013 draft could be a huge one for this flames team. I was always in the Monahan camp as soon as I found out we were drafting 6th. Glad the Canes screwed up and took Lindholm
That 2011 draft was one that I recall Feaster saying would change the organization and he was definitely right. The Flames picked 5 players and every single one of them has played in the NHL. Sven, Granlund, and Brossiot have been traded. Wotherspoon will be pushing for a spot next year full time. Gaudreau has turned into a franchise winger and the Flames acquired the 9th pick in Hamilton who is looking like a beast right now.
