Again, how many teams do you think have more total organizational talent, 25 and under, than the Flames?

Organizational depth and NHL talent, no matter their age, are definitely not the same thing in my mind.
It’s fine to believe the Flames NHL team is going to be great. But it’s not going to be because of their prospect depth. It will be because their NHL talent will improve.
