Especially since the last time the Flames drafted an impactful 2nd rounder (which also has an *) was in 2000. Unless you want to count Markus Granlund...

That's because they blew them all on marginal rentals like Eaves.
You can't succeed in this league without picks.
I'm optimistic about how far the Flames can go this year. They match up well against everyone but San Jose imo. But it's not time to buy with good assets yet. It's still building time.
