The only thing more depressing about this team currently sitting in the 10th draft position is actually looking at how many picks the Flames own in the next two drafts. Darryl Sutter got raked over the coals for trading the majority of his 2nd round picks but Treliving has gutted the Flames draft cupboard for a team neck and neck with the Canucks. This team is in worse shape than most Flames realize when you consider the futures that have been traded and the resulting yield on the ice. Canucks and Oilers are at least going to get the opportunity to draft a handful of decent players following their seasons while Flames will be sitting on their hands at the draft table.

All we can hope is the Flames rip it up starting tonight against the Kings. If they can play .650-.700 hockey the rest of way everything will be fine. Im dreaming though.
