1998 - hated the Fata pick, one of the only times I've been annoyed by a Flames pick
1999 - loved the Savard deal and the Saprykin pick
2000 - didn't like the goalie from the Hitmen idea. Seemed like PR.
2001 - Kobasew, fine with it
2002 - Nystrom. Great name, boring draft
2003 - Phaneuf. Was pretty excited
2004 - Chucko ... had no clue
2005 - Pellech, no clue
2006 - Irving, didn't like a goalie in the first round
2007 - Backlund. Liked it, but worried about the knee
2008 - Nemisz ... yawn
2009 - Erixon, liked it
2010 - no first round pick
2011 - Baertschi, didn't know much about him
2012 - Jankowski. Was surprised, but liked the additional pick and Sieloff
2013 - Monahan. Was happy that they got him over Lindholm, but wasn't jumping up and down.
2014 - Bennett - the most exciting pick in Flames history. No coincidence that he's the highest pick. One of the big four, and the one I wanted over Draisaitl
Not a surprise to anyone, but holy crap is that some lousy drafting.
