1st Round: 3 picks (Hamilton trade was okay, Hamonic was bad)
2nd Round: 4 picks (None in the last three years)
3rd Round: 2 picks
4th Round: 6 picks
5th Round: 4 picks
6th Round: 5 picks
7th Rounds: 5 picks
So overall we should have made 35 picks under Treliving, and we've made 29.
And the problem is the picks we've moved are the high value picks in the first three rounds (only drafted 9 out of 15 under Treliving), and it's been worse the last three seasons.
Over the last three years we've had 2 first rounders, no second rounders, and 1 third rounder (3/9)...that's bleeding picks for sure.

What would you rather; be where the Flames are in which I would say is a competitive team that should be in the playoffs year in year out. Or would you rather be in Montreal’s position? They’ve stockpiled picks for years now and are still, in my opinion, not as close to competing as the Flames.
