Just trying to figure out why the rest of the league has found a way to find complete hockey players while we can't. We keep going after the smaller guys for some reason.

But it's not the rest of the league. It's not like the Flames have some useless roster of undersized players and are buried at the bottom of the league. They have a competitive team with some obvious flaws, and some less obvious flaws. Adding some size that can skate would definitely help, but 25 fan bases could say the same.
It like complaining that Monahan isn't as good as Barkov. Well Barkov wasn't available. We got Monahan and he's a hell of a good hockey player. Evey team in the league would bump one of their players for him and make room under the cap today if they could. But here he's a soft garbage man that doesn't compete, can't skate, whatever. Its bizarre.
