You get what you put in, you want to consistently build teams that are top heavy with mediocre depth and mediocre skill, then the results are going to mediocre.
This has been the worst trait of the franchise, alongside impatience. Combine the two and you get the archetypal Flames deal: Trading a 2nd round pick for a character 3rd line winger.
