If the Flames somehow acquired 7 1sts prior to that draft and that summer we got to talk about Lindholm, Lazar, Rychel, and Shinkaruk on top of Monahan, Poirier, and Klimchuk we would be over the moon excited.

There was significant hype around the 4 year players we have acquired since that draft.

People would be penciling in future lineups of

Shinkaruk-Monahan-Rychel
Poirier-Lindholm-Lazar

As we sit here today Monahan is by far the best player of that group and followed by Lindholm. Other than that maybe Klimchuk has a shot to make it t the NHL. Lazar appears to be on the verge of falling out of the league. Poirier is a free agent and Shinkaruk/Rychel have been with multiple organizations (3 Shinkaruk, 4 for Rychel) and neither has yet to crack a roster for more than a cup of coffee.
