Both teams towards the bottom.

Bottom line ... contending teams have less picks with Ottawa, Calgary and Edmonton being exceptions. Canadian fan base pressure?

This is a great question Bingo. Do you believe the Flames organization really feels pressure from its fans to try and try and get to the finish line sooner or does it all just come from within?
In Houston it took new ownership before Astros organization fully committed to building trough prospects. The fan base didn’t change.
