Very disappointing and frustrating, but par for the course for us Flames fans it seems.

Thank goodness we struck gold with Johnny and our top picks since the rebuild started have all panned out so far.
Is it bad drafting or terrible development (or the usual - a little of column A...)? Would we have developed Guentzel? I doubt it. Mind you, when you throw away early picks (Kanzig, Smith), that doesn't help either. Have we managed to develop anything in the AHL? Brodie I guess. Anything else?
