I'm hoping Gillies Shinkaruk Jankowski Parsons Andersson Wotherspoon Kylington Poirier can become legit NHL players. But the flames are hoping on some prospects to meet or exceed expectations.
If you actually think we're "Quite far away" then you must think the team is absolutely screwed right?

The Flames have star players in their prime and are a cap team. Moves are going to be made when it's time to pay a starter goalie, Tkachuk and Bennett big dollars. This team will be shedding star power after a few years, not adding to it.

Rebuild is over and the Flames should be a playoff team next season. Too many new pieces to say how far they can go currently though.
