I sincerely believe Calgary's drafting has improved though, and the recent analysis from Bingo would support that. The problem hasn't been what they pick it has been lack of picks.
Here is the butterfly effect though to me.

If they hit and take Tkachuk instead of Joe Levi, They dont finish low enough to get a swing at Hughes.

We wouldn't be having this conversation if Bennett turned into a top line center, of if Draisitle drops to us.

Or we should have offered all picks in the draft like the NYI instead of just the first round for Mackinnon.


Edit: Corsi and Jiri said everything already :P
