Well, they rebuilt too quick for one thing. In hindsight, that might have been the biggest bungle of all.
I mean, maybe Brad Treliving doesn’t trade for Dougie Hamilton and the Flames draft Mathew Barzal instead. Maybe Tre doesn’t trade for Brian Elliott and the Flames draft Jordan Kyrou instead. Maybe Treliving trades for Aleksander Barkov in 2015 after another underwhelming season. Maybe the Flames could’ve tankes a little harder in 2013 or 2014 and draft a Barkov or a Draisaitl instead, I mean I don’t know, this all fantasy land stuff here. None of us know what was available and what wasn’t available to this organization over the last few years, only Treliving and co knows that and personally, I would love to have a sit down with him to see what he would re-do and what he would have done differently.
