The Flames drafted a difference maker in the 4th round a few years ago.
I get that it would be nice to have landed a Laine or Matthews today, but it doesn't mean the Flames are screwed. Monahan, Gaudreau, Bennett, Brodie, Hamilton.......a few pieces here and there (ie. a goalie) and plus whoever they get at 6 this year.....I dunno, the future looks pretty bright to me.
