I do think that the Flames can fill the one of the 3RW and 4RW roles from prospects in the system. They will need to acquire or draft a 1C or 1RW and a 2RW. But please, no more retread projects, let's give the youth a chance to shine next year.

The Flames lack a #1C and #1D - two pieces a team almost always has to draft. Shuffling around assets to land a #1RW is just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
